Vertiginous
                                 Loss of brain
                  Can't quite focus
In this ****** of ecstasy
                                                       Climaxing

Her pink body on top of mine
Metallic clangs and
                             Plastic bangs
We connect
                Cupping her hips
                                      we meld our metals
                                     together.

Together we sit
Fitting leg in leg
Arm in arm interlocking
                                         Her body on top of mine
                                      The smell of her plastic
                                   grazing my seat
                                                  Her bottom, underneath
                                                      ­                                                    stained with gum and disregard
                                  I keep
Upon my lap
the tickle of her back
                                                            ­       set a distance from my own
                              a way to come closer
   pink    on    pink     metal     on    metal
we sit
together.

Together we are proud
Publicly alone
Embracing in Totality
Windows close around us
                                                       Fits of              Dysfunction
                                The Wonky Garbled Mess
Fading to Chaos
to nothing...

blackened dizziness
           of unreality

as we sit
encircled
embracing
forever
alone
together.
Poem inspired by a photograph titled Vertiginous 2253 shown in gallery preview in Philadelphia Museum of Art
