she who mews (24)

she who mews

for goddess b

her kohl
painted eyes,
& black curly mane;
her juvenescent lips
with that
sfumato pout
offer prayerfully
a smile
that flickers & fades
but returns with
even greater allure;
moving rhythmically
on her perfect face
like the obliques
& pelvic muscles
that roll her
perfect belly.
i brush them
with a chaste kiss
& taste the soul
of felis chaus
