ure mind is racing
faster
than the speed
of
feel
surrounded
by thoughts
theories of others
who squeeze life
DEAD
in their
analytical grasps
I
AM
GASPING
for
love
fainting
screaming
wanting
reeling
for
u
CAN U HEAR ME?
my eyes
send smoke signals
my heart
pumps morse code
my fingers
swirl a symphony
along ure spine
forget what ure past
says
the ink on the page
will fade
someday
u
waste
the here
& now
HOLD ME TIGHTER
pour me wine
don’t analyze
the degrees of my flesh
don’t scrutinize
the rise of my thighs
& why
i flush
& why
i die
& why
ure sighs
make me high
just
be
just
see
just
hear
just
FEEL
& seal the deal
w/ another kiss
until our lips
can not sense
time
closing in on us
how can u
misconstrue
my motives for u
as i sit here
straddling u
i can
justify
clarify
simplify
tantalize ure heart
w/ a dozen cards & poems
just
like
this one
BUT I CAN NOT FIGHT URE MIND
please
disconnect those wires
satisfy the desires
that lie between us

pull back the covers

heart
&
head
can never
be
lovers
