Why I Write, Part x+66: That First Look

That first look got me moving.  The next stopped me cold.
Your smile invited me to be funny, to be bold.
But I've been wrong before.  It takes more than a look,
So I did my research (well, I hit up facebook).
I found nothing of warning, and still wished to get on it,
But that's not something to come out and say, so I wrote a sonnet.
(Okay, so that's two lies.  They weren't sonnets.  There were eight,
One after another, but none of them rate.)
Metaphors with holes in them, all on a string,
Signifying nothing.
