poem of the day 02.02.16

porno

she makes it a point
to slap down the dvd

thick black plastic
norwegian art film

hitting thick desk plastic
fine swiss craftsmanship

she slams the dvd really
right in front of me

as if renting it were my suggestion

the dvd cover
showing a naked body
in window’s light

blonde female curves

the modesty of powerful nations
covered by the film’s title

she says, this is porno
she says, it stimulated me
in ways that i did not like

then she storms out of the building
her ass a fine censorship

while i hold the film to the light
looking for those salacious spaces
in between the words

telling america
this is not porno

this is not
even trying at all.
