Susan Mills Poet Light Verse

The Couch

The Couch
     Like sea foams with white satin on top
                                                                            Inverted belly buttons
Stretched pleats
The length of my most beautiful man R.R.
A skirted bottom
Bottoms up baby, lets play
A lamp shaped like a canopy over top
Yellow, purple, and green
Light to shed on the subject
The couch becomes couched in words
Aliveness felt new and giddy
Mmm, you know what I mean
Purple satin ribbon in between
Echoes and voice in between
A lot of love in between
No one can come in between
Water as to saliva
All couched in words
A mirror like big window to reflect 
Our dweliing without and within
By Susan Mills
