I’ve found midnight in perspiration
A translucent effect
On the underside of passion
Two folds between these legs
Heat lingering like a tongue
Touching fantasy with delight
A finger in the night
With your grasp holding me
Flirting edges of my nipple
With a bite and now I’m gone
Tag: nipple
Rusty (day 1546)
I put into words the last drops of sunlight
That left my supine soul wandering alone
Face up on an old two-track dirt road
By a rusty water reservoir
Near the outskirts of town.
For me, I couldn’t understand the capacity
Of one single ray of sunshine
That drifted on from that barren landscape
Of my calmly coiled fingers.
I drew a large circle encircling my two nipples
Nearly touching my navel
– Which had the mark of an ancient blood line –
In order to continue calculating
My numbing heartbeat’s instinct
That would lead me from this enclosing darkness
Into a fiery nether region
I had witnessed during a tremor.
