May I Feel, He Said… – EE Cummings

Filed under: Poetry — by cerene @ 4:21 pm

    may i feel said he
    (i’ll squeal said she
    just once said he)
    it’s fun said she

    (may i touch said he
    how much said she
    a lot said he)
    why not said she

    (let’s go said he
    not too far said she
    what’s too far said he
    where you are said she)

    may i stay said he
    (which way said she
    like this said he
    if you kiss said she

    may i move said he
    is it love said she)
    if you’re willing said he
    (but you’re killing said she

    but it’s life said he
    but your wife said she
    now said he)
    ow said she

    (tiptop said he
    don’t stop said she
    oh no said he)
    go slow said she

    (cccome?said he
    ummm said she)
    you’re divine!said he
    (you are Mine said she)
