Cougar Et Tu Courage! Revolutionary IMprov Iambic Poem

I’d never met/
a Cougarette./
I’d had too much fear/
after watching them cheer./

Could her energetic and my blues dance/
lead to some sort of romance?/
She’d danced for the Cougs to win/
and now she lives in Santaquin!

this Cougarette./
but the evening/
isn’t over yet./
(It looks like she’s leaving.)

There is no doubt:/
She’ll rise. I’ll shout.

Thanks For Noticing: Revolutionary ImproVerse Haiku

It’s not smudged lipstick/
