Gustaf Munch-Petersen: Naked Human
man and woman –
black square sofa
with pale flowers –
the large light’s turned off –
a faint lamp burns
yellow –
they kiss each other
long –
they squeeze each other
hard –
as if there was something,
which may not be –
her shoulders are bare –
breasts
through thin green clothes –
he touches caressingly
the slip –
she turns red and serious;
how difficult it is to be
young –
may not –
dare not –
he kisses long –
smiles:
there’s nothing to do about that –
she sighs –
and then there was no more –
