Ruth Walters - Enticement in marble

Ruth Walters - Enticement in marble

I'm standing here watching; br watching you, watching me, br noticing your silky, auburn hair. br You stroked my bottom once, br I saw you smile twice br and you thought it very sensual, br you confessed. br br My body's made of marble, br my eyes are marble too. br My father, he who sculpted me br was human just like you. br He was of the flesh br and knew its potent pleasures br I'll never know warm skin br with all its sacred treasures. br br Come a little closer br place a kiss upon my brow br let's pretend we're lovers br and can smooch upon a couch. br I would hold your hand, br so warm and soft and kind. br Come, come a little closer br let's pretend, just for a while. br br This museum soon is closing, br the weather's cold outside, br kiss me quick my darling, br we have such little time. br She placed her lips upon him br and kissed his stony mouth br and as she did it warmed him br and a tear fell to the ground. br br Now they stand together br within the great hall there, br entwined in love forever br all beautiful and fair. br No one seems to notice, br they gaze but they don't see, br there are two marble statues br where only one should be.
