...as if aware,

drifting and reeling,
her brown eyes 
beseeching. Then she
was tenderly lifted,
laid on a table,
praised, petted

I hear the panic in their voices
and hurry out of bed
As I look through the peephole
I see the guy from next door
his shirt, bloodshed red
and in his hand a gun

The breasts have borne the grace of their possession, 
The lips have felt the pressure of content. 

Here I come home: in this expected country 
They know my name and speak it with delight. ...Read more of this...
