A restless night
Missing your warm body
wrapped around mine
I bailed out of the barren bed at five
The refrigerator stopped breathing
while I was at work
A molten river of raspberry sherbet
dripping down it's face
Hungry
Achy with desire
I took a long brittle shower
washed and waxed my hair
and flung it over the arm of the couch
I let the cats chew and swat it about
Cool and wet
Wanting on a hot summer night
I fell asleep with the romance channel on
Elusive images fluttering on my eyelids
a silvery dream
My svengali
Kissing me softly
softly,
softly kissing me
