Sittings
Alexandra Isacson
Like a whore I unpack my heart with words.
Hamlet
With stung nipples
I close my legs
to you
like all those
Post Impressionistic whores
who spread their souls
for Gauguin,
van Gogh, and God.
Like a mere transient thought,
I slip away draped in bed sheet
in someone else's dark alley.
You splash me away on canvas
between sips of port.
