/// This is titled “A Lady Undressing
for the Bath,” but the truth is, (I’m guessing),
that the man, hat in hand
who is entering, planned
some caressing that leads to transgressing.
/// In the corner some steam provides heat
as the lady starts washing her feet.
In a round copper tub
she’s preparing to scrub,
(not to be indiscreet), her backseat.
/// The man peers through the door’s window glass
at the décolletage of the lass.
Not alarmed like her pup,
she smiles as she looks up.
Why’s he here? What’s he come for? Harass?
/// This is bathing? I’d like to suggest
that it helps if one first gets undressed.
Are there towels? I spy
none to help get her dry.
Could it be she expected her guest?
