Two

What do you say to
the girl who sleeps
with no nightdress

expecting you to slip
your hand under sheets
so subtly as not to
make her shudder

what do you say?

when she stares back
and asks you to lay
this burden on her chest

She is confused. She is beautiful, nonetheless.

She is the you
of herself.
Scared of a lonely bed
of the reality,
scared of you.

What do you say?

when whispers come
tempting your ears
and thrusting your body
into a lovers act..

well

you don't say-- you think
what a man thinks,
and then you continue
like an animal.
