I found myself in a room
with two women
sitting on a very large bed.
One was watching television
and I for fascinating conversation made
with the other woman
behind her in a
low voice
The black ladies of the court
and their shy eyes burning with
a lust
beyond the gates of desire
singing their sacred hymns of
fuck me
a rite, not of passage,
but penetration
Then I caressed her thighs
to which she replied:
"You're really ugly to look at"
Then I laughed and agreed
"I would have been prettier with teeth"
then on bed we lay
and made love
for sounds.
she tied herself to me
for a whole night
pricked me
until the soft parts of me
died.
The other then looked back
and asked " - " I don't know
for I woke up from the dream
and on the floor next to me
was silk woven in arabesque threads
as if it dropped out
of the dream
with us. |
