Hotel by Katie Lewington

is it that easy

to second glance
flutter eyelashes
and drop an invite
with room number
11
i will join you
in three
on the bed
lay lady lay
and spread your legs
say goodbye to good sense
hello to STD

–

blow me a kiss from the bed
you lay

my fingers are poised
to flick it
as if a fly
i stand
back against the wall

sliding into my skirt
where did i put my phone
and why
am i
missing a shoe?
