You want *** to be soft, to be sweet,                     like dripping honey warm and liquid flowing          boundless you don’t                want the mountain ridges                                    on your lover’s chapped lips,                                                                        you don’t want the                                                 vase to                                    s      h     a     t    t   e       r               on the floor as though there is a                             limit to the sugar, you                                     want to pour prettiness                                                   into every crevice of your                                    heart and you want love                       to be sweet and soft even             when your lover is                                    hard and cold, eyes like                                   ice and mouth powerful                                  like mountains and heart                               weathered like beach pebble—                                                                               you want a ****** with                                                           candy lips and long lashes and                                                       feathery thoughts with long                                                    sighs of hot breath not                                                     real words not speaking while                                                          loving not thinking while kissing                                                                                    not hard and bitter,                                                                     you want soft and sweet,                                                                     you can’t take it like                                                          bedsheets and bittersweet                                 not soft not hard not sweet not bitter.
