My fingers clench, turn the knob
My arm begins to push
The metal hinged-slab gives
Through the threshold I walk
Steam washes o'er my body
Mist lifts it appears
I stop, stare, I smile
So beautiful I turn way
Inside my chest pounding
This is mine and mine alone
Closing my eyes I take it all
My senses assaulted
Constant humming of lights
Purring electric motors
Rapidly clicking breakers
The ever slow drip of oil
My boots splash a puddle
My torso now in motion
I quickly take my position
The task in my reach
I roughly grab hold of the handle
Arm flexed-and-tense, I pull
The machine now in motion
Desired outcome is achieved
A rushing flood of water
Sensual exhale of steam
Rapid grinding of gears
Loud hammering of pistons
I ready for the next pose
Beads of sweat upon my brow
Looking down in admiration
Waterfalls down from my face
I thrust the handle back in
Thunderous clang of metal
Screeching sound of brakes
Finished, I shudder, I am done
So peaceful, now quiet
The ever slow drip of oil
Rapidly clicking breakers
Purring electric motors
The constant humming of the lights
I stop, I stare, I smile
She is so beautiful
