Why are you asking me to do this
Do what
Lie naked on my bed
While you place sharp silver knives
On my legs my back and my arse
Is there a deep reason
No
Then why
Because you have the most beautiful back in the word
The most beautiful arse
And do not get me started about your elegant legs
Then why the knives
Because knives are dangerous
Like guns
Spoons are not dangerous
Forks are not particularly dangerous
But knives are dangerous
If you were trapped in the wilderness with a bear charging towards you
You would not defend yourself with a soup spoon
The awful gangs in decaying cities if they are not shooting each other
Arm themselves with knives
Small knives
Large knives
They are all deadly weapons
Am I right in thinking that the knives you are using
Are part of a collection of knives
Yes
These sleek silver knives were part of the set
That I gave you for Christmas
Really
I think that you have girls all wrong Ray
Girls like perfumes pretty clothes and gentle possessions
Knives are aggressive
Knives are not aggressive on their own
They can sit peacefully in a box for endless years
And hurt nothing but carrots or the apples of the soil
May I move now
A second Rai
I need to balance these small knives
On your cut glass heels
And then
I am going to take a number of photographs
Why
Because I like taking photographs of you
Most guys if they chose to take photographs of me
Would be more traditional
What are you saying
You know my breasts
My radiant smile
My neat little bush
I would be photographed
Totally and fully naked without knives
You claim not to be an artist
But you take artistic photographs
There is no social commentary
What are your your reasons
Is it just because you consider me beautiful
That is one of the main reasons
What would you do if I was fat and plain
It is likely that I would not take photographs
That is a cruel answer
I agree it is a cruel answer
But it is an honest answer
May I move
Please feel free
Once I have collected the knives
And returned them
To their red leather case
I will then bring you a cup of tea
We will share a fur lined breakfast
As the day is still quite immature
