Gillian's Body


Gillian’s body is beautiful
He loves it so.
He devours her mouth greedily

Feeds on the lust of her lips
Nibbles her earlobes
Hickeys her neck
And sucks and pulls her breasts.

She wets a finger and draws where the ocean is
Tells him to kiss her there, mark territory that isn’t his.

Her hands are linen, and fine satin
He kisses each knuckle; his hands are slow but urgent
A web of fingers finding places to own Gillian’s body;
They find themselves alone in the night
Feasting on each other’s lust, conquering territories with their mouths
And they dream of days together.
