Nude Descending a Staircase

#Nude Descending A Staircase

he pauses, tall and strident.
          footfall is
     flexing is flowing. a calf.
          a lion is a willow
hips swivel.
          he water
     a roaring lion. a footfall.
          calf and he is
a flexing calf is flowing water,
          resonant lion
     pauses. swivels.
          and footfall strident
and his left shoulder is a roaring lion.
          hips and sex
     deep and resonant and
          he gold
a footfall, deep and resonant on the stair.
          stand, lion. flex.
     priceless in willow-gold.
          flecked a shoulder
a heavy pendulum of sex.
          his roaring
     lion a flex. deep and resonant.
          he is in me
he stands, priceless before me,
          deep gold water
     on the stair on the footfall.
          pause. left.
framed in gold-flecked willow,
          his price
     pendulum of the lion.
          before me
hung.
