simply sex

by Emily Davidson

there was no agreement
there was no contract

no place to put down your full name
and birthdate

no "sign right here
on the dotted line
next to the X"

it was simply sex.

"really good,
pretty meaningless,
no strings attached."

that's what he asked for.
that's what i delivered.

the sad truth is there is no such thing as simply sex. it always means 'something'...and not necessarily something significant. nicely done.

...ahhh, don't regret it, just keep on keeping on the way you usually do [of course i don't know what that is] and to heck w/ him and anybody else wearing the clothes of humans...the buddhist's claim that life is pain that we [ourselves] bring on...good poetics...peace, chaz
