Lot’s <strong>Wife</strong> • <strong>Edition</strong> Three<br />
one sweet october night<br />
we shared a single bed<br />
the sweat of our skins<br />
perfuming the air<br />
your breath brushed<br />
my cheek<br />
heating and cooling<br />
by turns<br />
hair flared across pillows<br />
nightgowns tangled<br />
at our feet<br />
In. Out. In. Out.<br />
soft breaths, and<br />
the city’s sounds<br />
whisper by the window<br />
but cannot break<br />
our sacred stillness<br />
the dawn rays creep in stripes<br />
discovering our nightgowns<br />
our shoes, our socks<br />
our wounds, our wilds<br />
sweet sleeper, when you wake<br />
you roll and stretch and yawn –<br />
all liquid-languid motion<br />
all softness and smiles<br />
Good morning. Good morning.<br />
your eyes are sun-warmed earth<br />
your skin, rose-petal soft<br />
the sun intrudes at the window<br />
and we drop the blind<br />
to banish him<br />
we fold together –<br />
feather-touches and<br />
butterfly-kisses<br />
and we stay<br />
just a little longer<br />
