I wrote this during the summer during this class on poetry I was taking. I think it was supposed to be a story poem or something. My dad completely missed the point and thought it was very dirty. It is not dirty.

Do you think
She stretches her arms across his chest
Do you think they know? About us?
She lays back, drunk on love, freedom, autonomy
Small fingers on a dirty shaft, she drives it down and down
Honey, she says, You're staining the sheets
She rises and washes her scarlet-stained hands in the shit-stained hotel sink
From the bathroom, I love you, dear
He is silent; he loves her too
As blood drips onto the thin, cardboard carpet
