Climbing the Maypole

Looking under the empty swinging Trapeze bed patrol

Got a pinprick in July climbing the Maypole

Juices of the Calico Olive Press pot

Sleeping on the grass, not enough kissing in the dark spot

Passion silent wearing a Blindfold

Making friends without trying Robot

Alabaster silent dark woman’s not too old

Cluster of Violet stars, but one white star sold
