This is a lesbian poem. For the optimum experience, read it aloud with a healthy amount of swagger. Published in My Lover Is a Woman (Ed. Leslea Newman) SAILOR The girls go by in their sailor suits They catch my eye in their sailor suits Big or slight they all grin like brutes In steam-ironed pants and buffed jet boots They saunter right up my alley. I study their easy confident strides Crew cuts and white hats capping decadent eyes They shiver the pearl on night’s oysters prize They shiver me timbers, unbuckle me thighs This alley was made for seething. From the sweat of the street lamp or lap of the sea A smooth sailor girl comes swimming to me Says she wants it right now and she wants it for free Clamps her palms to my shoulders, her knees to my knees This alley was made for cruising. Her face is dark coffee, her head has no hair Her cap shines like neon in the bristling night air She pins her brass metals to my black brassiere Tucks her teeth like bright trophies behind my left ear This alley is very rewarding. She tosses her jacket and rolls up her sleeves On her arm’s a tattoo of an anchor at sea She points to the anchor and whispers “that’s me” And the wetter I get the more clearly I see This alley was made for submersion. Her fingers unbutton my 501’s This girl’s fishing for trouble and for troubling fun She slides of her gold rings and they glint like the sun Then she smirks, rubs her knuckles, and spits out her gum This alley was made for swooning. Now she’s pushing her prow to my ocean’s sponge wall Uncorking my barnacle, breaking my fall And there’s pink champagne fizzling down my decks and my hall As she wrecks her great ship on my bright port-of-call This alley was made for drowning.
