Love me

Bee Rawlinson, contemporary

You in shorts and socks and sandals; Me with warts and huge love-handles

The Gemstone Line
How does it sound? Why does it work?
The poem
Love me when I'm old and shocking Peel off my elastic stockings Swing me from the chandeliers Let's be randy bad old dears Push around my chromed bath chair Let me tease your white chest hair Scaring children, swapping dentures Let us have some great adventures
