I haven't read a poem that has stirred a reaction in me like this has for a very long time.

Nothing On

Alone at last
and plastered from the mini-bar
we were looking around
for something to amuse us
in the hotel room
when you fell upon
the Gideon Bible
in the bedside table
and made me read to you
from the Book of Genesis.

If you carry on
dancing round the room like that
in your sun-tan swim suit
twirling the hotel's
complimentary fruitbowl
it won't be long
till the page fills up
with four-letter words
and I lose my place
in the story of the Creation.

Hugo Williams from Billy's Rain
