Different Days By Alec Solomita


Briefly I went out with a girl who lisped,

We were very young, fifteen I would guess.

She was slender and tall and wore specs,

impish and funny, and as they say now, clueless,

a clean, sweet-smelling child.

When some parent or other was gone

we’d jump into the nearest bed and

make out. I’d feel her breasts and kiss

her nipples, and sometimes she’d hold

me in her hand. One day she dove 

under the sheet and took me in her mouth

for, I would guess in retrospect, about half a minute.

She crawled back up grinning and jubilantly

announced, “That was my second blow job!”
