Shields Down

 

A coaster and saucer
saunter into a bar
seeking flat surface hook up
with willing cups and glasses
on a table or counter preferably

where they get it on traditionally

Though both accessible platforms

do insist
on being on the bottom
of any fleeting

one on one relationship

Tonight our lonely heroes will find
diminished demand for their kind
in this selfish
residue tolerant existence
where stains are the norm

and safe contact

blemish prevention

is sneered at
