The Making of An Appetite

Neville

 

Watching us both in the tall mirror
making out like that
   made me feel I was taking you twice ..
And I swear if you
had been a lychee or fig I would have
eaten you whole
right there and then with the sunrays
brazenly bouncing
off the sweat on your glistening back
and blinding anyone
   who might just happen to be passing ..
Dear lord, how you
   just gave this old man back his appetite ..
