Slickened Interior like Patent Lust

Slickened Interior like Patent Lust

You’ve become a leather outfit just for me,

But not a black one.  You are supple, brown,

And warm.  I bend the elbow and the knee,

Then feel that sturdy thigh…and touch this frown

Of leather at the armpit, creases that

Stretch out to needy smoothness just behind

The knees when I lift up those ankles at

The crucial moment where those parts enshrined

Inside such suede-like surfaces will hold

The secrets of the space of hips and crotch.

This richness of the trousers made to mold

Around those secrets hidden in a notch

And bulges, competitors, spreads best

Except for, maybe, sweating, gasp-filled chest.
