Mr Cutler had passed away
the room was cleared and ready
for the next resident
clean sheets
pillowcase
fresh blankets
the curtains taken down
and washed and dried
and put up again
but that didn't stop Sophia
penning you in
standing with her back
to the door
blocking your escape
he is dead now?
this Mr Cutler?
yes died the other day
you said
nice bed
she said
you looked at
the candlewick bed spread
blue and smooth
yes guess so
you replied
you gazed at her
with her blonde hair
tied in a pony tail
her ice blue eyes
focused on you
her Polish English words
harsh yet also soft
you could **** me there
she breathed
rather than said
too risky
you said
more exciting
she uttered
her Polish tongue
brutalizing
the English
who will see?
the old man dead
who else
will come in here?
some old boy might
come in by mistake
you said
an audience
will add to the fun
she breathed out
the words
you could smell
their sensuality
no I can't
I have baths to do
you uttered
looking at the door
behind her back
they can wait
she said
or you could
bath me first
she said smiling
I've got to go
you said
someone might need me
I need you
she uttered
here on the bed
I can't
you said
if you try to leave
the room I will scream
she said
I will say you try
to touch me up
as you lot say
she put one hand on a hip
and the other
against the door
they wouldn't believe you
you said
let's try
if I scream loud enough
and cry they will
she said
she mimed opening
her mouth and screaming
ok
you said
no need to scream
she smiled
good boy
I like you
she said
moving away
from the door
and unbuttoning
her blue overall coat
revealing her tight
short dress
her ******* pressing out
the top
she dropped her overall
on a chair by the window
and drew the curtains
that's better no?
it made the room darker
the shadowy light
made the moment surreal
come on
she said
mustn't waste time
and she began to undress
and you stood there
open mouthed
and doomed
when someone
called your name
down the passageway
Mr Elks needs you
where are you?
oh ****
Sophia said
dressing quickly
and standing
by the sink
out of sight
of the door way
sorry
you said
maybe another time
and you opened the door
and closed it behind you
as Matron arrived
ah there you are
Mr Elks has been
calling for you
I think he needs to go
to the bathroom
o right
you said
just been making sure
the place is ready
nodding back
at late Mr Cutler's room
ok
she nodded
and gave the door
a quick look
and then went on ahead
leaving Sophia dressing
and forsaken
no ****
for her today
and followed Matron
with no
more to say.
