E. E. Cummings

Between the Breasts

between the breasts
of bestial
Marj lie large
men who praise
 
Marj’s cleancornered strokable
body      these men’s
fingers toss trunks
shuffle sacks spin kegs they
 
curl
loving
around
beers
 
      the world has
these men’s hands but their
bodies big and boozing
belong to
 
Marj
the greenslim purse of whose
face opens
on a fatgold
 
grin
hooray
hoorah for the large
men who lie
 
between the breasts
of bestial Marj
for the strong men
who
 
sleep between the legs of Lil
