A KISS ON HER LIPS

By Julius Malah Matete Munthali "Please!" "What?" "Stay where you are!" "Don't even touch me!" Windows, curtains were closed Door, not just closed but locked And that art work not mine but hers That gave me the zeal soon I would be in the promised Land "Please, don't touch me!" "Please, pleas..plea..pl..p.." A kiss on her lips neutralised all the defences "Touch me more! Kiss me more! oh this world of sugar and spices....." Finally I was in the promised land Enjoying the new hot coffee in town
