SHE STOOD IN A SHADOWED DOORWAY SHE STOOD IN A SHADOWED DOORWAY by Robert Davidson She stood in a shadowed doorway Awaiting the appointed time of delight Eyes mocking love as Lips of lust gleam in a moon-blanched night. She stood in a shadowed doorway When I shattered the dark with a light Claiming a fierce kiss on The porcelain pallor of a face so white. She stood in a shadowed doorway The touch of her body against mine stuns As our sexes meet Vaster than explosions of burst suns. Our lone paths cross, then are blown apart forever As I got what I wanted, and she her cash did recover. The scowl of pleasure's lips now scorn me ever Point down to the pit, mocking this sated lover. She stood in a shadowed doorway Her look of reproach unnerves, conceives A cool challenge while My lust blew away like dead winter leaves. Copyright 2005
