60-Minutes: Deep Tissue: Miss Doris
she needs a full sixty minutes
but only begins to relax
and let go after forty
her mind holds her back–
refusing to let go–
the harder she tries,
the further away it is
she is always lady-like
and proper,
even lying naked,
trying to be receptive
the session feels like
hard work for a time,
but i won’t give up–
i will keep rubbing
Miss Cleé Doris
until she yields up
all her pent up tension
then, she will dress
and return to her
daily routine, the
tension increasing
day by day
until her next appointment.

hmmmm….I thought this was one thing, and now I think its the other. I like it when a poem does that.
I’ve always wondered what goes on in the mind of the massage therapist
Very interesting perspective! I’d love to see a little series of these.
