She was an appetizing,
poetic proposition,
right from the opening line.
No way to keep
that veiled suggestion,
curtained off from
my window of attention.
Then I decided---
in slow time
ate that sensual creation
in total self- absorption.
Couldn't help speeding up when
the crescendo of culmination began.
A poem should be enjoyed to the hilt, be it in the moring or night
