I saw a woman

I saw a woman........bathi.... Bathing at night I was on the roof and the moon was bright. She scooped the water like water is life It ran down her body like she gave it life She touched her body as if it was ash With so much care and unbelievable love Her breasts were like two hills Of prosperity and Good will Her hair crowled down her back Like a poor man following his heart I could smell the fragrance of her bathing As though bathing had a fragrance. The moon and I were watching To make sure the sun was not rising She bent to scoop more water For a moment I wished I were water I wanted to jump off the roof And fall..... in love like a fool Until I slid and heard people laughing Then realized I was just reading a book
