Kissing League

Summary
– Kiss me right now
said Passepartout
– What on earth for?
– To place you on a rating scale
– Not bad yours ranks fifth, she said
examining her notes
– And your Ganesha man?
– Ranks first
– You are stupid
Yours has a dry finish, which is good
His is pure mineral, nitrate, ask-for-more
Yours is committed and intense
His has a pin-point poise
Yours is well-balanced and modest
His is delicately balanced, endless
Yours has a range of ripe flavours
His are pulsating flavours and aromas
Jeera, jasmine, sweat!
There is a difference between being tangy fresh
From being finely fruited
You end it with an enticing bass-note
His is pure tenor!
