If only for a moment

James Galvan

English 306

Steve Pett

If only for a moment


She asked for a moment

I decided to give her three.



The first moment

We begin to kiss.

Beginning to touch her

all over like an Octopus.

Not so grabby she says.

Realizing she doesn’t like

creatures of the sea.



The second moment

I start to reach up her shirt

Suddenly ripping off all her clothes

Like a kid opening a Christmas present.

Slower she yells

As if the tortoise could actually beat the hare.



The third moment

I can taste the salty rain

As it soaks

both our bodies.

Out of no where

like a race horse

I come to the finish line first.

Uhhg she growns.

Leaving me only to think

That she doesn’t prefer thoroughbreds.



As she showed disappointment

For those moments we shared

I began to wonder

If a minute per moment

was enough.
