The Pink Pussycat

An irreverent poem

You’ve stayed in motels, I’m sure, and if you’re unfortunate, the walls are paper thin, and worse, a street girl has been paid and all you can hear is her violently shagging him.

I lay and listen as they struggle and grunt, kisses intent on pleasuring their souls, while they suck and fuck, finger and linger, as if their lovemaking is way out of control.

I hammer on the wall, hoping they’ll heed my call, asking for them to keep it down in there, but the screams of delight went on through the night and I lay there in utter despair.

I wanted to sleep and was ready to bang on their door, but then I remember the angel of my heart, waiting patiently at home for me to take my place on her stomach with her legs apart.

So I pick up the phone to make a call home, tell her I cannot wait to see her face, longing to be with her in bed but instead I’m listening to other people shag in this pokey old place.

I put the phone down, a heavy burden lifted from my heart, and wrote on the thin walls of this dirty motel, about hearing the screams, saying I’ll return, bring my wife, and fuck like we do in our dreams.
