Woman on piano*

Ivory and sexy black

Wood on sexy black legs

Steel strings wrought

Loving tight, vibrate

Moan and tremble for you



Siren song carried

On wings of reverb

Raises skin of

All who listen,

Tingling virgin spines



A black bench,

Not worthy, moans

Gently under such

Perfect weight. What luck

For such dead wood!



Hungry ears perk,

Ground beneath quakes,

Climax in E sharp!

The audience exits now,

To smoke cigarettes
