Mood Music

Spread your lovin’ arms –
shove over in those warm sheets, honey –
just stocked up on Brahms
quartets for not a lot of money –

gonna kiss you ‘til you’re red
and lick you like two dogs –
and listen to it, loud, in bed
and roll around like hogs –

wallow in its hot thick mud –
vibrato! – syncopation! –
swallow hard, and ride the flood –
get blotto with sensation –

grunt and mount up to the point –
slick with that Hamburg grease –
where we can blow this earthbound joint
and get some damn release.
