the sweet girl with the bold brown eyes that laugh is heading home.
somewhere between the lamp posts she smiles at her secrets.
the halogen light only amplifies the tears.
distant now are her loves.
...
love remains
attached to my fingertips
as securely as it is attached
to my heart.
...
Would it be impolite to tell you I'm having carnal thoughts of you?
Thoughts of kissing you very hard on the lips
My fingers pressing against the small of your back
Trying to push our bodies together urgently
...
if you must mount these gallows
give a joke to the crowd
a dollar to the hangman
and make the drop
...
I frame your unfolding passion to perfection
yet not a quarter so well as you display yourself
even night blooming flowers
would weep with envy
...
in the cool mist shrouded
silent, as the hour creeps to midnight
I sit alone in the cloud covered night
with the first puffs of smoke
...
what happens to the unwanted souls?
do they wander looking and lost?
...
desire and love radiate from your slender fingertips
as your hands gently move across my body
it is your duty and honor to caress every part of my being
my flesh dances underneath you
...
there was the thing
that I did not want to see
though the cuts and bruises were there
to remind me
...
