On Attraction

She has eyes of a color
So rarely seen in nature.
She has a smile.
Oh, she does smile
When she's not so conversational–
Her vocabulary is sensational,
Because she reads all the right books,
and I swear it's not all about the looks,
But whatever lizard lives inside me
Reaches up from below
and wags a finger back and forth.
He says no.

I want to like you, but I don't.
