A girl who can’t shake off
the smell of a man
she met but didn’t know well
she thinks she feels him in her skin
she thinks she sees his sideways grin
she sees him on the street by chance
follows him as if entranced
gets on a train that he gets on
a girl like this she is possessed
She sits two seats behind his own
can hear him sigh a little moan
she wonders what he’s thinking of
as he removes his right hand glove
she notices his hand is strange
as if the bones were rearranged
she thinks of what she’ll say to him
she hears it playing deep within
You’re all that I need to get high
The man jumps to him feet just then
slips out the train and round a bend
she almost loses sight of him
shuts her eyes, thinks of his skin
she catches up just as he goes into a bar
and down below
to where cases of wine are stacked
there is no light it’s nearly black
You’re all that I need to get high
He turns around to face her then
his right hand seems to claw the air
she doesn’t know why she came here
she doesn’t know what possessed her
sweat’s running down her spine
but then he breaks into a smile
that lights up his whole face
and then he starts to laugh
and laugh and laugh, and then he says
“I’ve thought about you since that day
we met but barely spoke”
They start to kiss
he rubs his hand inside her tights, inner band
she shivers up against him hard
she reaches inside of him far
but then she stops, she pulls away
she starts to go
and he tells her “stay”
but she walks determined up the stairs
she sways a bit, she flaunts her wares
she’s got him where she wants him now
she knows he’ll follow hard and how
anything she says will go
any yes she’ll turn to no
he follows her outside and says
“hey wait, don’t go, stay here”
she turns around and sneers at him
and walks away for days |
