Thus did girl-group's beauty lad assail.

Monthlong languishing, in fret he flails.

It's none too soon

When next full moon,

Irene for pizza hales.


The velvet-smitten boy buffoon

Now rallies from his love-sick swoon;

Within a flash

He makes a dash

In hopes of idyll boon.


Somehow he arrives without a crash;

A tip he hopes for other than mere cash.

Before he knocks

He stops to gawk

At scene through window sash.


Upon piano sings a fox;

Each sister goddess round her stalks.

They're summoning

By conjuring,

As Joy with his eyes locks.


Now the girls are circling

The pizza boy in magic ring.

Too late to thwart

Nocturnal sport,

Enchanted evening.


Yet who would strive such fetters to abort?

With goddesses the mortal now disports.

To do the same,

To what wild game

Would you or I resort?


Smitten by such women brings no shame;

By huntresses divine this stag is tamed.

On couch they lie

To share the pie—

But what is their true aim?


Rare gems one can't afford to buy

Are used to top the pizza pie.

Among the bling

A diamond ring

Portends his end is nigh.
