The Hypnotizing Mobile Poem by Robert Rorabeck

And then we slept together-
These waves, continuing in the student
Parking lot:
She slipped out of her bra:
Jelly-fish, I supposed she was something
Beautiful underneath the moon
Even though it was in the middle of
The day:
And I was missing math class,
But I figured her out, or
I didn’t,
As the sun presupposed over all of
The housewives sunning themselves in their
Yards,
As the otters song from underneath the
Easement- sang so many songs-
But kept their love to their
Breasts,
As the conquistadors continued to slip
Away beneath them,
Resting there, underneath the alligators
Who took the place of airplanes- in
The hypnotizing mobile
That happened to dance without having to go
Anywhere.
