TABLEAU
The silence broken
only by the hissing steam --
kettle calls for tea.
Motion suspended,
except where he and she touch --
slowly pulsing heat.
Their bodies aligned,
noses, beating heart to heart --
aching groin to groin.
Time marking their place,
waiting for the rolling boil --
passion's lazy play.
Table, patient, waits,
almost knowing, food or lust --
either end fulfills.
