Poetry in Lotion – a micro story

Photograph of women fencing

Poetry in Lotion

A woman, her face caged, epee in hand. Crimson lipsticked mouth, black liner eyes. Men in suits, in the background, watching her. A highly erotic image in the archive of Crawley Museum.

Fencing is a sweaty business, the photo cannot be true. But I love it, and so do you!
