Your lips part as I enter
the dead end
dead, 'cos I'm wearing my raincoat,
so it won't rain on our parade

thrown caught and heaving over
you ride the quake through
and after shocks, ask me too,
'how was it?'

I say '****ed if I remember.
When you dug your nails in

storm, clouds and showers,
flew right on past me,
right through, and in.
Blow, for a second wind.'

    Nice! I like the vivid imagery. Is it sexual? ( )

    I reread it several times. And I think on the third or fourth read, I discovered something new about it, something exciting. Aside from the sexuality that obviously adds excitement, the poem speaks more... at least for me. I think the best line is:

    "dead, 'cos I'm wearing my raincoat,
    so it won't rain on our parade"
