i.
The tease went
door to door
without giving out
her number,
she practiced
public speaking
so she wouldn't
give out her number,
but the boys
such nice boys...
it was hard on her
with the way they'd
answer her query
and smile.
ii.
I found your
warm, worn
cruciform,
soddy spread
across my bed.
iii.
Yours is a science
a darling renaissance
of a reticent vowel,
say it out loud
don't mouth it
into your coat or hat,
you know he's bad,
he takes you out
without calling
you back.

You don't need to be
fricassee
I like your tan lines better
and your stock
when your pale as a cucumber
naughty as a clam
v.
The tide's gone out
and your mermaid suit
can't hide you anymore,
you're naked
and market moving
with your man-made
indices
vi.
It took a television show,
full crew, sound man,
executive producers,
a catering service,
for me to tell you―
you can wear my shoes,
if you move in,
I can kiss your bruise
the moment it happens,
you can refuse
the cable service, Internet,
even the Financial Times,
if you move in
and fold your socks with mine.
ASwirls, we'd like to hear any suggestions to make our work better. Email Stephen or just post your thoughts right here. This group of poems is about Stephen's little sister, so now when you read it and it sounds incestuous, you know which parts I did. Thanks for the heads up on that group effort journal, I'm sure I've seen it before.
yeah yeah "Yours is a science
a darling renaissance
of a reticent vowel,

into your coat "
Really enjoyed this collaboration. Often they come across disjointed, but this blended very nicely. I have one or two suggestions if you are interested, but overall, cool poem. Submit: admit2.com
This was mentioned in today's poetry review thread if you want to take a look. I enjoyed it very much, and it sparked an interest in your other poems as well. I'm very glad you both collaborated, and that you each continue to submit separately. You're both talented and I'm glad I got the chance to read this (as well as your other work). Thank you for sharing.
