A Desire, A Drift, An Unwanted Gift

Leave me my rituals

The flesh is an ocean.

The truths are all doorways

As lust is emotion.

 

The tie-knots are leakers

As passive in search.

My motives are pullers

Leaving me hung in the lurch.

 

Test me on turnstiles.

Work me on pleads.

I drift only daily.

I want only needs.

 

Keep safe Your distance.

And I'll keep all my words.

You laid me for power.

And left me for cursed.
