First Date With A Dear Sir Poem by Ravi Kopra

First Date With A Dear Sir



If you want to be my friends, tell me the truth Dear Sir
What kind of man your are? Faithful? Honest? Dear Sir

You cannot hide lies. Your face will tell the truth Dear Sir
Do you cuss? Drink? Smoke? Drugs? Gamble? Womanize? Dear Sir

Did you hurt your ex wife telling lies? Dear Sir
Why did she divorce you in two years? Dear Sir

Can you keep straight face? Look at me, Dear Sir
What made you contact me? Why do you like me? Dear Sir

Do you have a job? Car? Money? Yacht? An aeroplane? Dear Sir
Or you are after swindling innocent trusting women? Dear Sir

Are you a con man? Or an honest gentle man? Dear Sir
What do you expect from a gal on the first date? Dear Sir

I ask you so many questions. You answer none. Why? Dear Sir
I guess you must have hidden something in closets Dear Sir

So I think this is our first and last date. Right? Dear Sir
I will pay for my own drink. Good luck. Good bye Dear Sir

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Inspired by

Dear Sir - Poem by maria goodison
Dear Sir as you are sitting in front of me please take care of the
words that you are choosing.
The table may be set but I can say with truthful looks that this is not
a interview for you to join the group.
The words that you say can and will be your undoing, also hurt the one
you love in many different ways.
The secrets that you've kept are never kept still or quiet and the guilty feelings
find their own place, they will and do crawl and sneak hidden in your face.
Dear Sir as you sit at this table and drink deep from that goblet of lies is there
Something that you would like to say?
