Famous nude by Picasso
by Barbara Smith
[ poetry - july 04 ]
Today, I point two firm melons
At you. You latch on, voraciously,
Pike baited.
Later, I let you begin.
Fine-tuning, looking for your
Favourite signal coming through...
But then, wanton takes over
Turns us about, directs things awhile,
Furious porphyry almost wholly
Out of grasp.
Then we went home
And had a nice cup of tea.
