Some French Subtitled Thing

Daily writing prompt
What’s the weirdest movie you’ve ever watched?

On a date with a new beau,

To an avant-garde cinema we did go,

It was all in French with subtitles,

And as time went on it affected my vitals,

My heart began to race,

And red was my face,

For the action it didn’t stop,

The movie was a real flop,

I must have seen every angle,

That from a bed a human could dangle,

Not that anyone did any harm,

Perhaps that was the film’s charm,

Nevertheless it was a sad end,

There was no second date you can depend.

Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏
