He watched rivulets /
Condensed aromatic steam /
Trickle down her neck

Beneath her towel /
Under her swimming costume /
Her body simmered

His eyes traced the seams /
Of the damp steam-room towel /
That hugged her tightly

Through the steam room haze /
She watched him without knowing /
That he watched her back

He sat opposite /
His lean torso obstructing /
Her view of the wall

She watched the stranger /
Laying his towel on the bench /
Revealing tight shorts

She opened her eyes /
Feeling cold air from the door /
As he stepped inside
