battle of the sexes
My head flies to the right...laughter erupts...goose feathers float
turning i take another good shot..dance back out of range..gasping
"treacherous bitch" ....that really sets you off..tears roll down your face
i dart forward..you flex ..legs apart..riding the bed..another good shot.. My ears ring..but i've grabbed a pillow
what a laugh..legs swept away you bounce twice..i dive..pin you..do you give in ?
Your eyes meet mine..breasts heave..hands pull me down..you whisper...always
