I Don't Know

Lights are dimmed
And the pants are around ankles
Computer screen like a movie beam
Shoots out sound and noise and feeling
Feeling each other and himself
“Whatcha doin’ there girls?”
“Nothin’.”
“You girls like to party?”
“Umm..yeah.”
Nodded heads along with them pictures on the mantelpieces
Sleeping snores come from the bedroom door
The lights are dimmed, dimmed like always
Like automatic friction means more than
Eggshell stained pants and sheets

What I liked:
FUCK YEAH! This poem made me happy because it's about life in all its uncensored dirtiness. It is therefore perfect because it doesn't shy away from those things that make us human. I like how he approaches the subject very casually. Wonderful all around.
Improvements:
I dunno, dude. Maybe you could have written about meadows that were sexually charged.
