Searching in a Mall

.Entering the mall
with a sense of vulva
Pahn hesitates
seeing
the lingerie show
lingering
on body stockings
sheer
dark
layered

Aiks has gone on
without him
while he was looking                                                
annoyed
at a man’s interest
in women’s bodies

Searching

                 for her
through the mall                                               
climbing many flights

eventually                                               
finding the private office

                                                in the upper levels
 

                            Bathing there
                          alone
                              finding his own body engaging

Pahn hears her

                                         coming up the stairs
and feels ashamed
 

                                         He holds
                                                                 his full

                                                         insistence
 

                                                             and feels compelled
to hide

                        the hard           and wishful
                     lonely nature

before

                               she comes in
                                     on him
 

                                                           in the midst
                                                            of water
.
