Her lissom body is almost nubile, flirting

pert protuberances, soon to become

a woman's bosom, while her face still retains

the faintly mischievous, wriggling giggle of childhood.

She's wildly, prettily coquettish - half innocently

spinning (already) her seductress web - conducting

a delighted dialogue, showing her sense of fun,

but wondering where the innuendoes lead.

I perceived the havoc in store - the family unity,

her attunement to a normal track in psychic development,

the fellowship for myself with the human race - all of them

called in question, if I let my lust from its leash.

     But were I God, I know I well might choose

     a world without these sexual taboos.
