to my little drummer girl,
she taught me sex wasn’t a violent thing.
but sweet and loving.
she came to my house
and said
‘someone needs to show you how to make love,
I’m in between boyfriends.
so I’ll come by for awhile and teach you.’
I was 19, 20, 21, don’t remember the age
I might’ve been 22
those years kind of go together for me.
it was a month maybe two
not sure
but I learned I have sex to a sixteenth beat.
I smile when I think about this.
then one day she came by
and told me she met someone
and yes
they married
and have kids now
but to her I have to say
thank you
it was one of the most sweetest things any person has done for me.
