Flexible yet rigid, the cane bows while still remaining a cane — an undeniable length of power, solemnity and grace made ever more so by its temporary transformation into a curve.
It bends as I do, with resistance. Under his tutelage it bites, caresses, cajoles — anything he asks. Soon there will be line atop of line mapping our path, a pale criss-crossing of passion aligned with punishment.
I suck awareness through my teeth as the cane moves air. By my side, he is pleased.
I turn my head and think: there is nothing so erotic as a cane and a woman held by a man who understands how to use them.
