I seek to fall into her skin
cloakless.

I sense her soonness,
as I smell rain
with the windows closed.

I have an unhappened memory
of nuzzling her nape,

and my body reclines into my soul.


The oscillating pogo-stances
keep me at bay,
though I feel the brink
of a greatness unsolved.

So I keep an eye open
as I fall through the bed.


My totem

considers her's
                           called.

'think'

skipsome-
skipsome-
skipsome-

(rest)

I
could have learned

to breathe
a long time a go.

(note)

A lorry spins quickly
on a road just wet,

(save,   )

and the never's just a
five letter no.



       drinksome-
    sleepsome-
thinksome-

(rest)

There isn't any you,
there wasn't any me.


     And a lorry spins ever
on a road still wet.


               wet,

wait,


                                      wet.

cool, glass favors
and steep, narrow stairs,

and I'm just a boy as a murmur.

nightgown elicit
and curving's entranced

and a boy well set up for a fervor.

with all borders destroyed
on the floor by her bed

and an innocence thrown out to sea.

I sit on this isle now,
well alone and awake,

searching for a raft

made by me.

there will be
only a shallow,

pleasured connection
til you learn
to tie the knots of my youth

into something new
and your own

or until,

you can teach me
to burn 'way the noose.


I found
on my own
with a struggle-pack demon

that the years never pass
with abuse,

so let's
'eye to eye'
with a love-wagered reason

and baggage all this kink

into use.

A pleasure sought
does not a monster make,
but I will stay away,
lest I turn you to usage.

I want you more than life,
and I would give as I take,
but I will stay away,
lest I turn you to usage.

You're the draw,
you're the muse,
you're the sleep that I lose.
You're the creature
when(?) deserved
that I will not let me choose.

i am the rot
in the gut,
and i remain usage.

the little dots,
the little dots,
the clever tasks
of hit-me-nots,

the flavor chase
of over-cradle tones,


      the rounded bore,
the tasted lore,
the keenest sweet
of evenscore,

the purgey smile
of freshly-rattled bones,


      will leave us here,
with blanketsmear,
the slowest breath
of hold-me-dear,

though room reverbed
with slender, ghosted moans.


      the little dots
of eyelid knots
will crest and lumber
sandy cots,

we roll the night
like sunny,

              bleaching,

                                  stones.

"I'll   be


here right now


and


there right then."


a feel for heart,

a thought for head.


The heaviest stones

I roll from my bed,

as I lay here and try


to push the undread.
