Could somebody please critique this poem?
“Heart Glue: A Line”
I could inquire whether, if I asked you out -
A movie, say – you would tell me, “No.” Then, if
You didn't want to go, you'd say “Yes,” that's what
You'd answer if I asked you out – which I
Would then be certain not to do. This way
You would avoid the guilt of snubbing such
A sterling blackguard as myself and I
Escape despair of one rejected by
So hot a little honey as you are.
No-risk seduction courts with lines like these.
But should you answer, No, you'd not deny me,
I'd have to wonder what I might do then.
I might complain you too familiar are.
Your acquiescence fast made me your friend
And as such I'd have to warn you against
Galoots like me who aren't always brave,
Indomitably strong, infallibly
Sagacious, as one worthy of your charms
Would have to be – although those same allures
Perforce reduce ev'ry mere man to lust
And horny hankering. But since
Despair and guilt are dead, heartbreak won't
Stand a chance – I'd go ahead and ask you out.

It's cute, as long as blackguard was meant to be facetious. Made me smile. And very well-written ;)

Its an interestingly lively patchwork of genres and
leaps of figures of speech
but I wonder if it would get you engaged? :)
