Do You Want To Snuggle Or Be Right? Poem by Chuy Amante

Prioritize your desires in life.
Do you want warm snuggles
or just TO BE RIGHT?
They never come hand in hand
you get one OR the other
why choose the rightness knife?

Have you forgotten woven
warm bodies under the covers,
warm hands, cold toes,
eskimo kisses on the nose,
hair in my face, whisker burns,
unshaven legs and chins
and unquantified sins
of lack?

If you have something,
in the kitchen,
to make sure I hear really well,

I will

and I'll give you
my cold back and another chance
tomorrow Belle
