How We First Made Love
The first boy
That ever placed his hands on my body,
held my mind down, so carefully
Like a skin carpet beaten too finely
You can't push a needle through
I was nine
He had the eyes for aesthetics
Searched everywhere
But particularly found in the timid-lit room
Runned by my lower naked half
Lying beneath my malevolent double,
I wanted so much
I had my thin thighs coated in velvet girlhood,
Stretched at different directions,
Savouring the hard streaks of a love
Born so tender, it hardly leaves
It was one of those very important things
I don't know if this matters,
Bu-t
The First boy to teach me
My body was for giving
Wanted me more than anyone
That could reach my waist down
to my hips.
