he was sitting on the foot of her bed naked

she returned to the bedroom  a huge sparklypurply cup of water in her hand

she took a deep sip then handed it to him  it was heavy

he took an equally deep draught

                                   they didnt empty it by half

she set it on the bedstand returning to him put her hand on top his head thoughtfully rubbed it 

                                                                                                   Back to bed baby?

she was quickpulled back the blanket topsheet slipped under them

Gotta admire your enthusiasm kid

she pulled the blanket up to her eyes and giggled even muffled it teased

he stood walked along the bed leaned over  kissed her

she tossed the coverings aside he slipped in beside her pulling the covers up and nuzzledkissed her armpit

she giggled I’m ticklish.  she smelled so good  like freshbaked bread

                                                                          Im not tickling Im nibbling 

It tickles. 

My beardhavent shaved in a couple of days

she bit her lower lip struggled between wanting an not wanting him nibbling 

                                                                                   she endured

 

   Stop.  Please.

he stopped kissed her warmly 

tousling his hair again You were in thought when I came back.

Yes  he smiled wolfishly 

                              I was thinking 

she pulled on his ear What were you thinking?

more wolfish I was thinking how much I like your pubic hair 

she rapped him on the head

                              My pubic hair?you like my pubic hair? 

Adore it absolutely

                        But I was thinking . .

. . Thinking what? her grin approaching wolfish

he chuckled 

               I was thinking  wondering   if I woud like your pubic hair as much if I coud grow a full beard moustache

she burst out laughing  didnt cover her mouth

teasing  Then maybe you woudnt have to have hair

Like a little girl? 

                   I was a little girl . . no more.

Art critic James Elkin argues that paintings are puzzles we feel compelled to solve in order to ease our perplexities about the world in which we find ourselves as well as our uncertainties as to how it is that we found ourselves here 

   courtesy of Timothy Brooks  Vermeers Hat

puzzling paintings

to be solved 

             the idea confused him 

his experience  paintings  artwork  usually absorbed inhabited him 

he an his girlfriend viewed The Girl with the Pearl Earring at San Franciscos Legion of Honor  it was first time in nearly 30 years that Hagues Mauritshuis museum had loaned her for exhibit   

they slowly deliberately worked their way through the gallery artworks that accompanied acting as court to the enclave where she was displayed they approached asif approaching an altar sobersomber   reverent

they had viewed The Girl for more than forty minutes 

                                                        when they left they backed awayhad a difficult time taking their eyes away from her  they felt dopedmesmerised  

they carried their precious experience throughout their four hour ride home through dinner through the night an when they woke in the morning they laid in bedpropped up on pillows enjoying turning the pages of the exhibits catalogue 

speaking for himself he couldnt say or recall he thought anything in The Girls presence 

he did however appreciate Mr Elkins Mr Brooks salient impression

  :  :  I see you did – however I was referring to our last klatch – 10March – well after I was gone – when we also drew a blank regarding the Inquisition

Makes me wonder why we’ve drawn a blank twice – probably because we were tortured to death in our past lives

I like “thighs in real time”  spell-check gone wrong? or clever?

Think   Shoudnt you say I believe I have Theres a big gulf between thinking an believing

You always split hairs.

Theyre worthwhile splitting one shoud vie to be as accurate as possible thereby eliminating incorrect perceptions versions

You really drive a hard bargain.            

An I have an example

Where’s this going?

            Coud we agree

This feels like a trap.

Theyre human beings too

   You fucked . . a nun?

I did

What was that like?

Like sleeping with any other women  She has the same desires same foibles as anyone

Did she remain in the church?

She did  We chalked it up to youthful indiscretion
