Love Watch
Love Watch
He watched his wife
in the glow of moonlight
her skin in dapples of camouflage
made silver patterns
like the silent tigress
on the prowl.
His passions awakened
explored the expanse of his desire.
smooth ebony hills
across the plains of smooth skin
into the edge of mystery
and the tigress watched.
Unblinking eyes gleam with warning
he raised his spear to strike
the hunters’ gong sounded
his time to be
on watch.
