Sated

[billy]

not a lot to give constructive feedback on, i thoroughly enjoyed it. i was expecting a smorgasbord of sexual gratification, not sure about the 3rd stanza but it does add the kind of person she is. a good solid read that wasn't what it seemed. (it was much deeper than just sex)

thanks for the read.

She does kegels for him. had to look kegals up, now i'm excited
Three daily sets of ten,
while she’s behind the desk at school or work,
in traffic or brushing her teeth. i'm sure what the kegals are leading up to but i like the matter of fact and mundane way i'm being led there.

They smoke and eat pizza in bed,
kissing with greasy tongues. nice image between the two lines
They come with her on top,
pulled tight into his chest.
Appetites earned, they wake to growling bellies. i like how it's implied it wasn't a 5 minute dash with 'appetites earned
“What’s for dinner?” he asks. is this line needed as the burger line onward is saying the same thing as is the line above
She worries about her waist,
but relents when he mentions burgers and shakes.
At midnight, she’ll fry potato
with onion and garlic and parsley. i'm not sure if it's a sex poem or a mean for fast food two of my faves so i'm good to go

She never gave in easy.
She never watched sports or apologized.
She tolerates things she never did. [tolerated?]
Not the porn or reckless driving,
but the faucet left to run,
his tardiness and flirtatiousness.

She never felt sexy.
She never cried over a man before, the before on this line is what the poems all about, this guy is different, he knows how to share, the line above "they come" sort of reinforces his qualities
never felt an ache crawl from her chest
to her throat and stomach.
She was never sated.
But with the buttered French toast i love how this line diffuses the never's that's mentioned
and his grip on her thigh,
she is voracious, sexy in her gluttony. okay so i was half right, it's all about the food
