As Near As My Computer
for Karisma Registry

like a great strawberry to bite into
in her tight, red panties

so very near the camera, the viewer
with her legs apart

wicked chicken
knowing I’m hooked, knowing I’m hers
smiles slyly with me, with so many

and swings an arm, and winds her waist
her gesture of farewell

am I in heaven or am I in hell
hungry, thirsty for a girl
I am unable to reach, to get to
through glass

am I, are we animals in a zoo
is she the zoo keeper

or is it she in a cage as it were
and we have come to view
a wild girl
