If Cupid and Psyche were alive today
would we worry about the sensual abandon of this pose
his hand draped over her budding breasts
her head tossed back in abandon
as she reaches up and ruffles his hair
People smile and take pictures
If I had wings
I would make love in the air
Questioning what is real
the marble copy in the Hermitage
or the plaster here
or my dance last night
this reminds me of
(Canova, 18th-19th C)
