HA! Of course, my first read on this short piece required re-thinking, as these short ones often do...
I still think it is about loss, and can now read it as a loss of interest in sex (while somehow holding on to my first impression).
Very, very clever 3-4-3 piece, though I do think the title is unnecessary, and actually detracts.
Thanks CRNDLSM, for opening my eyes to another layer of meaning, and I suspect there may be yet other layers that I'm missing,
