Swans and the Swimming |
«Take me again,"she said, thinking of him |
«To the pond with the swans and the swimming» |
Far from his room the familiar perfume |
How it left her aware she was naked |
The lesson she learned when her memory serves |
Is to marvel with love at the sunset |
And walking away at the dark end of day |
She will measure and break like a habit |
Oh, how the rain sounds as loud as a lover’s words |
And now and again she’s afraid when the sun returns |
«Take me again,» she said, thinking of him |
«I don’t care for this careful behavior» |
A brush through her hair, children kissing upstairs |
Keeps her up with her want for her savior |
The sun on the sand, on her knees and her hands |
As she begs for her fish from the water |
But turned them away, she’s a whip and a slave |
Given time she may find something better |
