NAAMAN'S THOUGHTS 1962

Naaman sits
at the dining table
and waits for prayers
to be said before
the meals begins
he muses on Shoshana
on the bus
how he sat next to her
and how she
promised a kiss
the following day
and he tries to imagine it
ressing his lips together
running his tongue over them
soft glide side to side
puts one of his hands
over the other
pretending it is
hers on his
Naaman
his father says
are you ready
for prayers?
yes sorry
he says
looking at the table
not his hands
releasing her
imaginary hand
from his
and forms hands
for prayer mode
his father says the prayers
and all say amen
and mother says
take and eat
and they do
but Naaman imagines
Shoshana sits
beside him
and wonders what
she would eat
if she were there
and what would
his parents say
if she spoke
of the kiss
or how he sat
next to her
and their thighs touched
and he felt a flush
of hotness
go through him
and their hands held
warmly
softly
o how I am in love
he thinks
and begins to eat
and passes salt to one
and pepper to another
all the time
thinking of Shoshana
but smiling at his mother.
