What it is, tethered to your arms? *** has gone. *********** hurled itself out the door and into the highway, lured by the hitch hiker's course. Your ****** shaft bears no resemblance to a sheathed dagger that once slayed indiscriminant of ***** lips and vulvous tongues. Hands that hailed eyes shut to meaning, mouthed delirious to more than ailments of corporal pleasures. Flesh to flesh, breath to skin, sweat of your brow dripped into the last sheets soiled and saturated. But what is it, tethered to your arms still? Transfigured to what lingers beyond a look and a touch, strings the web to another bridled day.

First Light
What it is, tethered to your arms? *** has gone. *********** hurled itself out the door and into the highway, lured by the hitch hiker's course. Your ****** shaft bears no resemblance to a sheathed dagger that once slayed indiscriminant of ***** lips and vulvous tongues. Hands that hailed eyes shut to meaning, mouthed delirious to more than ailments of corporal pleasures. Flesh to flesh, breath to skin, sweat of your brow dripped into the last sheets soiled and saturated. But what is it, tethered to your arms still? Transfigured to what lingers beyond a look and a touch, strings the web to another bridled day.
