Sexiest of People.--Friday 11/3/2006

Sometimes the very
sexiest of people are just sitting there,
not doing, or trying to be
anything at all.

For instance, in a chair
speaking thinking listening
maybe the eyes scrunch a little
while undertaking some task
and they have a face that sits
upon this neck which connects
to this body and it just does what it does
just the right way without pretension
or self-consciousness.
there are legs, they flow down
shaped just so, bending at the proper place
leading to feet.

It's all perfectly normal.
And their brain is working
they are doing something
and being something
creating something
speaking in a voice that
is exactly how a voice should be.
a good voice.
It's just right there,
the way it is,
the perfect sexy beautiful human picture.

And in these moments
confronted with such things
I just try to keep it going
say the usual stuff
ignore all the chattering voices inside
forget about the way
the electrons in the air are
doing all this weird shit.
Mostly awestruck,
I just wonder if this,
the subject of my attention
is fully aware of her casual effect,
the recreation of seconds she creates,
and if I will ever, ever,
actually speak such words aloud.
