The Listing
She's from San Francisco.
She spread her pussy open.
She's trying to find a girl.
Asian, but she doesn't care who it is.
In bold letters. Lick my pussy now!
She's a short gal. 5 feet tall but sweet.
No men! Again in bold letters. Listed.
Craiglisted for someone to come
from as far as the Inland Empire.
Black hair. Bangs and bush.
Open mouth kiss with a pussy like this.
Anyone of you girls can have it.
And they say wow. She let it all hang out.
Her pussy says Now!
Bold letters again. Over stimulation.
She's trying to find a girl.
She will host if she has to.
She will drive if she has to.
As far as the Inland Empire.
The Bend
She bent for grocery bags.
Her black ass.
She bent to pick her kitten up
To her shoulders and mutter
while the animal purrs.
Kiss into the interminable blackness.
I would.
Her black ass.
The bend
And slide her garments
over her back end.
Her black ass.
Everything is involuntary then.
Her black ass and its bountiful content.
The bend.
