Confused aphrodisiac

Sultry night,
A cold body lies,
Unkempt unaided
in a hospital morgue

Huddled in that gloomy building
are camera crews
Journalists
soaked wet in the monsoon rain,

Back in office
Sexy anchors air the verdict
on TV with less gaiety
as such special deaths
demand due declaration.

Carnal Pleasure meanwhile
ruffles bed-sheets of cavorting lovers;
feels a sudden urge to wank
on TV screens littered otherwise with tedious talk-shows.
