making love

she liked
to tap
and wiggle
her foot
to the music
playing on
the nightstand,
and chew
gum
while you
made love.
she was a
multi-
tasker,
talking
about how
the laundry
needed
to be put
into
the dryer,
and how
the cat
may need to go
to the vet.
there was
chicken
defrosting
in the sink.
at some
point, she
would make
eye contact
and say, hey,
are you almost
done.
