Older women

Her underwear
was a mixture
of thin blue cotton
and smut,
just in the sense
that it was
more arousing
to see them
on her
rather then
off her
and I'm not saying
I'm not a fan
of withering flowers
or smushed up
play-dough
but one can't
expect to travel
the grand canyon alone
or explore the merina trench
without the proper
diving equipment
and not encounter problems
so when a storm brews
or a tidal wave sweeps
lives off beaches,
it just happens that
this time, uncomfortably
i was the fawn
to her hedonistic
wolf eyes
and i felt the notches
of my old bed posts
become the notches
on my spine.
