Slippery

He clipped his toenails
on our first date
as I drove us to dinner.
He propped his feet
on the dashboard
turned to me and said,
“Do you mind?”

He flossed his teeth

while we watched TV,
flecks of food flew
from his mouth
and got in my eye.
I turned to him and said
“Do you mind?”

But the sex was great.
