DANGLING FROM FINGERS, AND OTHER POEMS, AUGUST 7, 2025
dangling from fingers
the restraints she so desires
book of his poems
-----
how soft is my gaze
yet she quivers neath its touch...
its intensity
-----
my eyes strip away
all she tries to hide behind
but she does not flee
-----
what is nakedness
than the most natural state
for life and for love
-----
how many poems
bearing your image in them
have i left the world
-----
i hold in my mouth
the taste of your lovely words...
poems you gave me
-----
she's best read by touch
poetry that's felt and heard
fingers pass over
-----
low soft voice of love
in the darkness i hear her
echoes on the wind
-----
lips move as i write
the poems i made for her...
words she'll never hear
-----
she reads my heartbeats
verses coursing through my veins...
i'm my own poem
-----
low growl in my throat
i smell desire on your skin...
as if a wild beast
