Room 34

she always kept a rose
somewhere in her home.

and when she invited me over
one day, it was as if I had witness a four-leaf clover
blossom right in front of me.

“sorry if the place is a bit of a mess,”
she said.

“nonsense,” I told her.

she lived right up on Broadway Rd.,
just a few blocks away from where I worked.
it looked like an old home from Venice
or some part of Italy.

naked, what with only a pair of Chava panties
and a Victoria’s Secret bra,
pink with black lining, she
asked me if I wanted a glass of wine.

I nodded.

She had a marvelous ass
when she went about her place.

and every moment I was around her,
I felt the smoke from the cigarette
well up inside of me with a thunderous
grey glow.

“I have to go powder my nose,
understand?” she said.

“Of course, go ahead.”

few moments passed
then I heard
“GOD DAMN IT, SON OF A BITCH!”

I ran into the bathroom
and there
she was,
gloriously spread open,
pussy as pink as I imagined it so.

she had blood really coming down
her right hand.

“I slipped and cut myself
on something. son of a bitch … look at that?”
she said, mesmerized by her own blood.

I helped her up and went into the
kitchen to get a cloth. I heard another
scream from next door.

“YOU BITCH! HOW DARE YOU FUCK HIM?”
a man shouted in room 34.

we were room 33.

“does that happen a lot?”
I said as I poured alcohol on her
wound and twisted the cloth around her hand.

“every saturday, but I think this time
she really fucked up. he’s never been this mad
at her before. normally, he’ll throw a few
things or call her names and then they
would fuck.”

she began to rub her other hand under my
hairy white legs all while I worked
on her wound.

“you have such beautiful legs, Chris …”

she kissed hairs on the back of my
neck,
then my shoulders,
then my arms …

i finished with her arm and began to work
on her mouth.

in room 34, we heard the pounding of flesh
and a bed all against the wall next to us.

“oh, look at that …” she said.
“he must have forgiven her. lucky bitch.
I hear the guy fucks like a hurricane on
steroids …”

i licked her insides
poking God’s finger with my tongue
and thought of the couple in room 34.

a part of me felt for them
while the other part of me
wondered how the “bitch” must fuck
if the guy forgave her so
easily.
