Snama
ON A PLANE TO INDIA
She had never lost the hennaed hand with which she had entered him. It had been an unwitting penetration, an honest deliverance.
The poem, she had destructed, in a fire cleansing, something she was wont to do.
She could not remember it.
But she could, perhaps,
reconstruct it.
Some words exact,
some words new.
All words appropriate.
Shall i stroke your ego
with hands adept,
or hold restraint
with words well kept?
Shall i invite you close,
bring your manhood to rise,
or hold you afar
with the blue of my eyes?
Shall i hold myself open,
reveal secrets untold,
or leave you to watch
my own mystery unfold?
Snama knew it continued, and remembered the direction, in fact, the destination, but felt it best now not to recall.
It was the immediate destination that was on Snama's mind now, with the information from the Captain that it was one half hour before landing.
Snama rose from her seat and took her bag from the overhead compartment, retreating to the restroom to freshen and change.
She stripped herself completely of her comfortable travel clothes, and washed with the soft cloth she pulled from her bag. Once cleansed, she dusted with baby powder, then placed kisses of fragrance in her most sensual places.
Never one for facade, she applied just enough makeup to highlight her features; darkening her lashes, shading her eyes, and lightly blushing her cheeks. Finally, unsheathing her lipstick, she stroked a soft pink glimmer across her lips.
She stood naked, gazing at herself in the mirror. The next step would be an important one, a statement she wanted to make. The donning of the sarree.
Snama put on her brassiere of white lace, and the blouse and petticoat followed. Lastly, she wrapped the sarree around her body as she had been shown by the shop keeper who had sold it to her. Her mind wandered to when and how she might become unwrapped.
Once again Snama took in her reflection in the mirror. She had not predecided whether to wear her hair up or down, and played with it now both ways. Finally, she decided to pin it up. She could let her hair down later.
