Pastorale
Out, go out to Lambeth Walk.
Trees there tremble, flowers fumble
with their zippers, afire,
as you pass
in desire.
Pollination proliferates as
perennials go slowly
blind.
Their hands drop off.
The fuzzy bee
rubs his hairy legs
in expectation.
He gives the kiss of love
to fainting flowers
as you pass
in ecstasy.
And birdlets atwitter
swallow worms with glee
as you pass
by me.
