Nymphetomania



There's few years separating these two lovers,
five and fourteen and a hundred blend together
as easy as blood and water. But look no more
than twenty-three years later, when all the youth
he once loved in her's gone: the rosebush wilted

at the unnerving mixture, got switched
with a self-destroying hunger. Now he dreams
of days when girls were younger -- he's choked
by that raised chin, by those tremendous eyes,
by the pale fingers he hopes will crack "I crave you".

The scene: a reincarnated Millais looks at his former pictures, dreams of his former muse....
