Pygmalion

-Patricia Barber

Cold as stone，

Possessor of bone­chilling beauty

I alone

wanting but not wanting to be

scratching and clawing at this

waiting for something to give

So give me a sign

a shiver，a sign

a look in your eye

a reason to live

Fantasy still

captor and captive are we

strangers until

desire and goddess intrigue

a slanting and movement of hips

a flush，a warmth of the skin
