River of no return

How many takes?
She was very sweet. She was a comedian. She was very shy. She was fuck me. She was very uncomfortable. She was convinced, she was not very sexy and pretty. She didn’t have an aura of sexiness about her. There was some magic about her, she would play at it. She would burlesque it. She seemed like a lost child. It seemed to her like Alice in Wonderland and she could not believe it. Anybody was very serious about her. She really felt she didn’t have the inner qualifications to fulfil the image of a sex goddess. She thought that the whole thing was a lie, because it was not her. She would never feel worthy. She was very very difficult. She was vulnerable. She was weak. She was teary. She was struggling. She was falling apart. She was hurt. She was an addict. She was needy. She was difficult. She was in pain. She was adorable. She was drunk. She was nice. She was childlike. She was late. She was lovely. She was hanging on. She was calling me. She was calling everybody. She was caring. She was unprofessional. She was sexy. She was beautiful. She was funny. She was doing the thing that was wanted of her, she was not doing what she wanted.

Not adopting any method to be faster but clearer. Not adjusting according to what is.

drop something, pick it up
drop something, pick it up
drop something, pick it up

turn the lock, open the door
turn the lock, open the door
turn the lock, open the door

move the chair, sit on it
move the chair, sit on it
move the chair, sit on it

sit on a chair, straighten your back
sit on a chair, straighten your back
sit on a chair, straighten your back

do it backwards, open your mouth
do it backwards, think about your mouth
do it backwards, show me your tongue
