I dreamt about an alligator
- what could that possibly mean?
Am I hoping that a lizard man
will slowly romance me?
Are my desires so primitive, so ancient
that we could come to some arraignment?
Would a silent and cold-blooded lover
be as ??considerate as any other?
Do I long for scaly fingers
to caress me up and down?
Or lust for reptile Dolce Gabbana pumps
and a matching iguana gown?
Do I long for another dazzling week
of lying lizard-like under a mediterranean sun?
If I saw an alligator prowling there,
I’m fairly sure that I would run.
What, on earth is going on,
in my secret subconscious mind?
After years of psychotherapy,
what do you think they’d find?
