Sex in the Cemetery
              by Wendy Ruderman

    She spoke of "sex in the cemetery,"
             She craved symmetry,
                in that cemetery.
                  So, he went ...

      with his toothy sensuous simper
            never growing bored of
            her wild working ways.

          She balanced herself high
     up on those grey granite graves,

             cackling all the while,
       as his twisted fear found face

          watched her shadow spill,
                   a black stain

            over the rotting corpse
  of "Miss Mary Macquee1918-1983."

            The heels of her boots
              clicked and clacked
                against the stone
                 ripping the air
                    with sound

as she moaned "explore my catacombs."

          He couldn't help himself,
         he pounced his prey then,

             pulling her down ...
        down on a bed of dusty dirt
  that powdered her face with glitter

          as the moonlight rained.

 Her satin hair fanned over the "Miss"
                in Mary's name

      and she laid layered in silence
   as they had "sex in the cemetery."
