Buzz Kill

Once
while seducing
my husband
in our en-suite
(we have three kids
and sleep in a loft bed...
enough said?)
I was sensually
removing my
fleece pullover
when the zipper
got caught,
and curled around,
the corkscrew of my
nose ring.
To clarify,
I had a fleece
sweater
hanging off
the inside of
my nose.
It was pulling
on my piercing
and it hurt.
As my husband
looked on in horror,
I prayed
and tried
to unhook the zipper.
To twist it backwards,
without being able to see.
I believe my
guardian angel
arrived
just in time
to shake his head,
and set me free.
Thank you
guardian angel!
I must confess,
the worst of it all,
was that
the whole event
entirely spoiled
the mood.
Though it
soon became
a favourite
story to tell!
