Fool
By Kenneth R. Cabrieto
          Unsure but still willing to try.
          Palms a little sweaty but you'll manage.
          There she is, play it cool.
          Don't ask her out yet, see what she's up to this weekend.
          There's your entrance, go for it.
          And then the whole things goes up in a blaze of sarcasm
          You try to play it off like it was some sort of joke
          Because you don't want to accept the policies of rejection
          Fool, confidence is not a side-effect of hunger.
