You are such a good lay.
I am such a good lay.
If we get together
our bodies will waste, two wires
of competent sinew
around our small bones,
then nothing, empty sheets.

Sentimental Poem
by Marge Piercy (1978)
You are such a good cook.
I am such a good cook.
If we get involved
we’ll both get fat.
Then nobody else will have us.
We’ll be stuck, two
mounds of wet dough
baking high and fine
in the bed’s slow oven.
