wet and dripping

i want you wet and dripping
wetted cotton belt about your waist
your earthy scent permeates

i want you wet and dripping
your brim to shade my face
cool me ’til the sun abates

i want you wet and dripping
several times redoused to bring
cooling just as sacred as sipping

i want you wet and dripping
until autumns blessed antithaw
oh my precious precious hat of straw
