outside the window II

At 38,000 feet
Felicity’s plump
jellybean
pink lips
glisten.
Her skin is
stroke-me-smooth
cream’n’pale,
punctured once
beneath her
bottom lip.
Grey wolf eyes
stare into mine.
Can I help you with anything?
Outside the window
the sky is
slapbang
in-your-face
blue.
Clouds
dazzle whiter
than
washing-powder
advertisments.
February ends.
One of us
is in trouble.
I tell it
the only way
I know.
Face autumn with the
legions of love
at your shoulder.

Coral Carter
