LIZBETH'S BATH.

LIZBETH'S BATH.

A Poem by Terry Collett
"

A GIRL AND HER BATH NIGHT IN 1961.

"


Lizbeth sits

in the bath

sponges down


and under

her thin arms

over small


but full breasts

soapy suds

hot water


pretending

Benedict

is washing


between thighs

(here she sighs)

wiggles her


two big toes

she wonders

if he would


do such things

she doubts it

not the type


but she's tried

to get him

to have sex


even once

in her room

but mother


came back too

soon and spoilt

her chances


and that time

in his room

with his tank


of old bones

skeletons

and bird's eggs


and model

Spitfire

hanging down


but no sex

frustrated

she sponges


along thighs

imagining

it is he


rubbing her

his warm lips

planting hot


wet kisses

on the back

of her hand


touch on touch

O too much

if was such.
