Such a gentle kiss <br />lips barely touching lips <br />such tenderness <br /> <br />releasing such <br />violence <br /> <br />we rip off each other’s <br />clothes <br /> <br />tumble on to the bed <br />fall onto the floor <br /> <br />all legs <br />akimbo <br /> <br />now on top of the table top <br />writhing in a frenzy <br /> <br />what’s happening to us <br />(it’s kinda scary) <br /> <br />totally <br />out of control <br /> <br />stumble out into <br />the back garden <br /> <br />wrestling now <br />in mud <br /> <br />wondering where all this <br />will end. <br /> <br />Laughter <br />stops us in our tracks <br /> <br />we look like a 60’s <br />hippie couple <br /> <br />all peace & mud <br />free love. <br /> <br />We shower <br />come clean <br />(with each other) <br /> <br />half afraid to kiss <br />in case... <br /> <br /> <br />We have coca <br />instead.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/cup-of-coca/
