Flashing

"A poem about a man flashing a woman"

Font Size

I’m naked and alone in the dark
Watching out my hotel window at the park
I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for the right moment

My heart beats in anticipation
As I keep my station
I try, try, try to be calm and patient

Then I see a chance
A twenty something women out for a dog prance
I watch, watch, watch as she comes closer

My breathing gets shallower
My heart pounds harder
As I pause, pause, pause my finger

I flick the switch
And appear to be talking on my cell without a stitch
Bathed fully, fully, fully in light

As her dog takes a sniff and stops to pee
She catches sight of “accidentally” naked me
And stares, stares, stares in wonder without fright

For many minutes she gazes amazed
Even though her dog has finished
Her phone flashes, flashes, flashes as she captures the moment

She continues to look with a smile
Fully engrossed in the moment all the while
Then she walks, walks, walks away content
