When she brushed his hand aside, he had to think;
 to search the heart, adrift in the body, to find a way that would make things clear, but all that came was a breath of air
, and it carried with it some words,
 spoken with resignation, that spelled a plea:
      “don’t make me beg”, he said. Half a world away, a man rested beside a woman.
 she looked up at him and brushed his hand
 along her breast.
 when it came to rest, at last
, along a thigh and probed between,
 she brushed his hand aside, and breathed
 a breath of air that said,
 “don’t…” a moment passed, maybe three.
 “make me beg…”, she whispered. 20 September 2013
