いつの頃からか続く、就寝前の習慣。
別に大したことではないけれど消灯前、ベッドの中で日記を1日分または詩を１編、ゆっくりゆっくり読むというもので、今は毎晩これを読んでいる。
E・E・カミングスはアメリカ合衆国の詩人、作家、画家。
第一次世界大戦中はフランスで救急隊の任務務にあたり、3カ月間拘留キャンプで過ごしている。
その時のことを書いたのが自伝的小説"The Enormous Room"。
以下は"erotic poems"から、昨晩読んだ1編。
特に好きな作品です。
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)

(tiptop said he

oh no said he)

(cccome? said he
