Mon Dieu!, his dream was a wet
Mediterranean pied-à-terre
at nine o'clock in the morning
where a naked Genevieve
sat at a kitchen table crying
because Marie who wasn't hungry
pulled on his brilliantine hair,
screaming his name in ecstasy
at midnight after thirty-five years
next to a wide awake Ethel.

without a doubt
I have a question about the structure
the five, three, two stanzas all bleeding into the next.
I agree
with todski. I love your poetry, love the way I feel compelled to read it over and over. Keep up the good work ;)
