Ah
I wish I could lay down
On this plot of land
And soak up all the subtle shades of green
Into my soul
Use it to somehow clean
My mind of the old deep down longing
For something unattained
And unattended to
Sadly even now
I lay alone and scared
With thoughts
Ripped bare
Like old underwear
That’s elastic
Has frayed and lost its grip
Drooped and sagging
But endlessly hopefully
Clinging
Attempting to be useful
Hitched up with a deft hand
Once used on a sweeter, smaller, tighter ass
To flick knickers caught between cheeks
That action watched by men
Who later go off to play
With someone who’s eyelashes will flutter
And who will say sweeter things
Than I could ever manage to mutter
I walked into the field today
Bent low against the grass
Smelt the air and the land
Felt it brush against my hand
The small blades and tiny fronds
Cut marks
Unfelt
Until later as I lay inside
The nip and sting registered in my mind
The hurt brings with it
The sensation of the sunburnt turf against my bare feet
And my skin
Baked hot and tinged pink.
I later recalled
That I wore no underwear that day
Did I just forget to act
Or did I choose to leave myself bare
Because I really did not care?
Or because I thought of a Lovah I once had
Who, if he’d known that fact
Would have been extremely glad.
He’d have reached his hand
As I passed
And squeezed my bare ass
I'd have sighed
And rubbed myself against his hard thigh
And stored away in my mind
That feeling of his hand
Branding me
Marking me as his
I know as a feminist
I should not say these things
Yet, such longings
They exist and
Ah,
They're bliss.
