Coming out
of Mr Dubbin’s room
you saw Sophia
standing there
with mop and bucket
and that Bardot smile
I thought you’ be
up here somewhere
she said
putting down
the mop and bucket
I’m busy Sophia
I need to get baths done
before lunchtime
she placed a hand
across the doorway
to block you in
surely you don’t want
to rush off
without being with me
a few moments?
she said
moving in closer
her perfume hitting you
her eyes focusing
on each feature
and muscle move
not just now
you said
maybe later
she stood nearer to you
her thigh blocking
any further movement
without you touching her
what would people think
if I said you tried to kiss me?
she said softly
but I haven’t
you said
we know that
but others don’t
she said
but that would be a lie
you said
sure
she said
but all is fair
in love and war
they say
you felt the door handle
behind you
and pushed it down
and the door opened
and you walked back
in the room
and she followed
and closed the door
behind her
and stood there
the Bardot smile
in place once more
I’ve got work to do
you said
baths to do
she pushed you back
on Mr Dubbin’s bed
and moved on top of you
and lay there
gazing down at you
isn’t this nice?
she asked
isn’t this better
than bathing
old men?
or wiping
old men’s arses?
I’m paid to do that
not this
you said
feeling her taut ****
pressing into your chest
her hands each side
of your head
on the bed
kiss me
she whispered
not now
you said
I have only to scream
and people will come running
and see you
on the bed with me
she said
her blonde hair caught
sunlight from the window
across the room
her eyes studied you
reflecting your image
in both pupils
you kissed her lips
sensed the skin
the waxy lipstick
the parting of her mouth
the red lips
ah
she said softly
that was good
was it not good?
she asked
you nodded
wanting her
to get up and go
and yet
as she moved off
and stood
by the door
and smiled
her Bardot smile
you wanted
(much against
your better judgment)
for her to stay
and kiss some more
awhile.
