poetry inchoate desires odd jobs |

Equestrienne by Lola Huston author info I didn't know what her thighs were for until I looked at the shirt on her chest. There was printed on it a horsehead, tasteful, which explained a lot, such as: patrician cheekbones and her great healthy height, but especially a pair of thighs like cannons. So that's what she does with them: she holds onto horses. She turned the other way in tiny shorts and showed a pair of mathematically perfect spheres over long long legs made to grip: two upside-down exclamation points, wow and wow. |
