It’s Not Working

 

It’s not working,

She said,

It’s not fitting, keeps slipping,

What do mean,

He asked.

Just what I said,

She replied,

It’s not what I’m used to,

It’s jerky, not comfortable,

You need to try

Another angle.

It’s all about rhythm,

He smiled,

Once you lock in

You’ll come,

I know about rhythm,

She interrupted,

If it’s not moving

In unison

It’s empty and hollow

Never a climax,

Try changing these

Words around.
