Summary: I mean, whatever will it look like when you're 70?! - Alliteration gone mad.




Perhaps
a two point five centimetre dolphin
or a rose
exquisite in its delicacy
coyly
peeping over the elastic
of a thong
as it sits in anticipation

on hips
which long to welcome any touch
however light
to fan the burgeoning fire within.

Perhaps.
