will the buttons hold?

i detect a note
of sarcasm in your reply
to my
question as to whether
or not
you like my dress,
she says,
lips pursed, her brow
furrowed.
no longer
with the come hither
look on her
peach colored
face.  i'm
so deep into the relationship
that it will
take a gaggle
of lawyers
to get me out.
her furniture is actually
in the house now.
clothes in
the closet. slippers
are under the bed.
good lord, what have
i done.
again.
i should not have said,
you look good
in tight fitting clothes,
but
will the buttons hold?
