To Sleep

There is nothing else to do but
sleep a
bruised night away.
This is a timeless day and she
pets her dreams on her lap.

The soft, silky fur of a tongue
rasped along her inner thigh,
she'll sigh, close the shutters
and be sublime behind lids.

Whew! This poem is so sensual ... you really know how to get our attention, elle. I especially like the line "pets her dreams on her lap". I wish I were connected to that tongue. :-)
