Outside of the hotel On the other side of the plate glass And heavy curtain Was a city Creaking and groaning along, as cities do But, they were inside, insular And couldn’t hear the concrete crumbling Or the steel, protesting gravity The lovemaking had begun hours before Days, really There, he was Adam and she, Eve And, there was no one to tell them When the lovemaking should end Or, when it should begin again But she had somewhere to be now Home, or at school He didn’t recall Only that it was somewhere else A place he couldn’t be She had reclaimed her clothing From the wet tangle of poetry They had written into the sheets And as he watched the girl in the mirror Dressing, smoothing, Recivilizing herself He rose up behind her Whispering his fatuities into her neck Grasped the bell of her hips And decided the city outside Could wait for her a while longer Under the weight of its pigeons |

smiling at "Do not disturb"... Even a hotel room can truly transform into the most paradisiac island when there is such attunement. Very beautiful! Love, Margherita |

Oh... you gift me such memories... or are they wishes? *G* Either way... applauding serves two purposes... showing appreciation... and fanning a heated face! *G* Excellent... YES! *S* |
