Greedy Girl by Heide McAlister-BatesA single droplet of
sweet
warm
musk
clings to the tip of
my tongue
as I retreat
from my
feast.
You -
panting
wide-eyed
clinging to the linens
like a lifeline.
Me?
Going back for my just desserts.

Posted by Allan Haslinds on 05/27/04 at 09:28 PM Very nicely done. The non-traditional spelling in the last line creates a terrific double meaning. |
