I sleep
in the bottom of
you sleep
in the top of
my pyjamas
so that when
you lie across me
at a certain angle
we are fully dressed
a female/male
creature
inhabiting
like a hermit crab
the same pair
of male pyjamas
with nothing
on our minds
but the joy
of sin
and so naked
now
we begin
both halves
of the pyjamas
watching together
from the floor.
The cat leaving the room
with a haughty meow
disdaining such
human passion.
