From the Cinderella poems

This is from my Cinderella/Snow White manuscript.

she imagined herself

she imagined herself
with him,

silk-sheeted sounds
with no words or sense,
tangled limbs
and eyes wildened
with wanting,

heat of breath and flank,
fingertips raising flesh
in rows in
gardens of desire.


she imagined herself
with him,

gowned in moon-silk sheen,
no clock-chime time
to interrupt

the dance
of lips and legs
and hissing blood,
of teeth bared to bite
and taste,

of hearts hammering ribs
harsh and hard,
to have him in her,

un-princelike,
wet with sweat
and sex.
