Amongst Women Only

And when she left me

I felt no jealousy

For company I had this fantasy

I imagined her without me in ecstasy

Alone or amongst women only

When she arouses herself

To her crises herself

She tries to touch the centre

But comprises herself

She sees the shapes

That fantasy devises for her

She feels beneath her finger

How it rises for her

Pleasure approaches

She surprises herself

When she arouses herself

To her crises herself

For my clumsy butterfingers

She abandoned me

And all my brutal masculinity

And now I like to think of her

Forgetting me utterly

And abandoning herself

Much more skilfully

When she arouses herself

To her crises herself

She tries to touch the centre

But comprises herself

She sees the shapes

That fantasy devises for her

She feels beneath her finger

How it rises for her

Pleasure approaches

She surprises herself

When she arouses herself

To her crises herself

Torn away from Kansas like Sam Dorothy

And the Wizard of Oz to become a pilgrim

Maybe she'll land on Lesbos and discover

Sapphic tendencies and harems full of Eastern promise

What do you think?

When she arouses herself

To her crises herself

She tries to touch the centre

But comprises herself

She sees the shapes

That fantasy devises for her

She feels beneath her finger

How it rises for her

Pleasure approaches

She surprises herself

When she arouses herself

To her crises herself

And when she left me

I felt no jealousy

For company I had this fantasy

I imagined her without me in ecstasy
