first, we just sat on the couch
sipping fresh punch
intimate conversations and such…
confessions about
feelings that had developed over the months
which led to flirtations, a tease, a touch…

then a prolonged plateau phase
which kept our heart rates up until coitus interruptus
thereafter we snuggled up until sunrise…

is that all?
HER:
yes, done!

S: close-fitting clothes are the new fashion my love, the latest in urban chic, just try them on – see how you feel
CH: why would I want to constrict… I’m not taking the risk… what’s wrong with ones I’ve always worn?
S: c’mon, don’t be a prick… it’s just something to adorn…
CH: I’m sure that’s what Edward Gibbon thought – if only he’d known
S: Gibbon, the historian? what a fatuous comparison!
CH: Maybe… still, he did die of a swollen scrotum

the terse meter of your phrases
and your ways

so don’t wait
to bring me to sweet surrender under your caresses
