real

whisper, silence and 
pleasant
women who bring what's 
missing to me
not even women really 
more girls
than woman, physically mature
but young in the heart
living a life 
I wont ever have . . .

coming to me 
with warmth and temporary 
love
 
silence 
sits in my lap
while I run 
my hands over
young brown flesh, she's just doing her job
long dark hair covering 
me with a closeness
wrapping me in
forgetting

whisper 
so quiet
and gentle
razor scars crawling up and 
down her arms
habits and desire 
overriding the youth
lost in a rush
to be free, now she works the Valley
for a pimp that was
on Geraldo

pleasant
warm and brown and soft
large dark eyes and 
smile from the 
Samoan islands
drinking cheap wine laced with 
PCP, the secret dance 
of the south pacific
played slowly across an afternoon
with the rhythms of love 
drawn against pressed flesh
ending with lips
wrapped around firm male skin
every drop 
pulled and savored

I think about this, 
rather than golden-green eyes
and a warm hand I can't stop holding
I think about the truth I've had 
rather than the truth I need


talent talking in a rush of words, overstepping each other with questions words not finished not really meaning as much as our clasped hands we shook hands three times- it was hard to say good-bye I'm still thinking about what I should of said feeling like I was 15 again lost in your green-gold brown eyes
Scars a wicked scar, looking like ripped jagged death crossed her lower spine brown mottled and deadly left over pain "Hollywood's a tuff town, and everyone needs a pimp, my husband left me because I wouldn't party, I hope he doesn't find out and come back." "I left my three kids at my mother-in-laws, because well . . . look at me, I couldn't trust my mom." "You'll go to hell for fucking on your period, so I don't guess I'll be lonely, but then again you'll go to hell for almost everything." I took a dishcloth, dipped it in cold water, put just a dab of dish soap on it, got on knees then gently delicately worked the red spot of my carpet carefully turning red stain to white foam, then to just plain old wet, then to nothing there's nothing left now I just walked over and looked like it never happened but somehow I don't think it's over
Pondering the guy sits in the same place every morning wearing a dirty suit his life's possessions in two suitcases one on his lap, the other at his feet I can see the wedding band on his left hand as he covers his ears when I walk by I wonder what he's thinking I'm thing the same old crap as always will she toss her head from side to side and moan or will she tuck her chin into her shoulder and grunt with flared nostrils and gritted teeth when we fuck
Dark Whisper your dirty love crawls to me from the dark calling to me in a whisper rumors that sound like truth stories that cloud my dreams dark whispers from my heart that tell me lies
