Walk slowly round me
Don’t touch me
Just yet
Move so that I am tensed, waiting
For the blow that I know must
Fall

Pull slowly on me
Don’t torture me
Just yet
Move so that I am tensed, waiting
For the screw that I know must
Turn

Slip softly into me
Don’t make me scream
Just yet
Move so that I am tensed, waiting
For the thrust that I know must
Come

Lie gently with me
Don’t leave me alone
Just yet
Do not move. Let us stay still
All waiting
Gone
