tattoos, race car, mobile oil and book

he, in that oil-stained overall
works around his racing car
with single-minded passion
that defies everything

she sits in the shade with a book-
reading with absorption

when heat gets to him
the overall is off
sweat trickles down
highlighting his tattoos

she steals a glance-
watches the play of muscles

he feels it too-
measures that intensity
through his own flared feeling
teeters up from his work

her book drops, pages dog-ear
with baited breath, she waits for him

isn't it all so ideal-
her tattooed male smells of mobile oil,
sweat, and flared desire
she succumbing to it all

I apologize for my previous brief comment, which might be taken for rude except that my life was in grave peril at the time and it was all I'd time to utter.

To elaborate: Lady, the smells in thy poem are not universally Cherished. And I would suppose the Churl's breath smelled of barley hops?

May I suggest leaving the Bronx to travel abroad where you would be sure to find Gentlmen more couth - that is, less uncouth - than those in your immediate vicinity.

Cheers,
Percy

Ideal? I'm not sure. But interesting, certainly.
