Jump or Dive

There is that awkward motion;
are the panties going on or coming off?

Do you dive right into the situation
or jump on the opportunity to ask?

If this is that once in a lifetime shot
then do you wander in all saunteringly inquisitive
or do you meander around back and look to see
if what she has in store is anything close to what you want to get into?

If you play it too cool then she sees your lack real game
but if you overstep then she'll think you're a perv
and really have no game and all you want is what she's got,
not that she's telling you anything about it.

But if she's really ready and she's giving you every signal
and she wants it right now and is making every effort to get ready
and all you can think to do is over-analyzing the moment to death
while her whole universe is dangling in front of your eyes
like the gumball lights on a cop car, then what?

And then she says, "Meet me, I might be drunk."

I jump
then dive.
