ÉDOUARD MANET'S(1832-83) OLYMPIA(1863)

 Oh yes, Olympia - we
want her, but would prefer
our lust to be given the garb
of decency, for her to be coy
and eyes diverted, for what
is and would follow to
be somewhat less
explicit.

Like Maupassant's
cheating aristocratic husband,
who ended up paying
his own jilted wife for sex,
we would rather not
have the transaction
and our lust go unrobed
on the way to copulation.
