grunge
a deafening mix that is called music screming chords thundering drums nubile bodies frantic gyrations... when I was a kid if your were grungy you were a slob

surprises
"See the girl with the red dress on" oh, hell, I can't use that someone once sang it he made a bunch on that one...
but there was a girl all in red, dress, boots, hair, lips and big hips did I say big hips at the club I frequent she was with someone so I did the right thing I covertly put my name and number inher purse
three days later there's a knock at my door she was dressed in black I smiled at her and asked her in she hit me with a right hook and slowly walked away I guess she didn't like surprises

lust or love
they found themselves pawing at each other as they made their way to the apartment as the door slammed clothes came off kissing licking sucking back against the wall she mounted me like a mokey up a pole thrusting pushing juices flowing passions overflowing until collapsing in a heap of spent emotions lying there for long minutes wondering how long would this last

market watch
I have an avocation that others might find strange I follow the ups and down in the battle of the bulls and bears one day up the next day down the day after that is kind of flat but what e'er I do during the day the question follows dauntingly what did the markets do today
