Strip Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Strip

Fingers count
On alert antennas
Of ears and of eyes.

Mind recalls,
And tongue talks,
Lips smile…

Devils tongue:
"Can recall…? "

Tongue plays,
Lost are rest…
Dies sentence!

Confuses wonder,
Kills silence!

Tongue is lead of play,
Murmurs on the stage,
Satanic are questions:
"Can recall…? "

Every part has bubbled
In kettle of body
That may burst of boiling!

Dumbfounded are the rest,
Kills the pain of suspense:
"Recall what? "

"Go-Go girls, strip,
Soon will come, amuse us…"
Said the tongue and stopped.

The "Oh, " "Oh, " fills the air:
Fall again? When will they?
Eagerly shout the eyes!

Eyes have seen the trees drop leaves
Into the soft breeze, Go-Go girls strip.
