One response I have echoes Judith's below: I would love to receive this. But then I pause, because I think: What if the poem is meant as a criticism of the false assumption of intimacy in our bluntly sexualized world. This could be just a poem of friendly openness in a world without sexual predators and exploiters. But it can be dangerous to be so open and the poem may be dramatizing it as a warnking. So I am caught in that frequent conundrum: Can I take this an uplifting (Judith's word) welcoming, or is meant ironically to expose something you disapproveof?
