nothing rapturous but the weight
her life affords me, as i lift it
without effort, to a place above
the dormant and the gifted.
nothing wholesome as the tongue
she proffers sweetly to my lips
that find her luminous aplomb
ignites a wriggle of my hips
nothing dangerous but the shapes
her limber form unfolds and frees
a team effort to escape
the dullard limits of our knees
nothing as intimate as the truth
her words wring deftly, warm and young
and we vanish into slumber
with all love done
