Maybe one day I will find out
what it means to love
I know what lust is
lust is long dark hair
lust is a firm body
an ecstatic giggle
in the dark
lust is a long touch
in a crowded room
lust is a carnal and wholly animal thing
that occurs when eyes meet
in a terrible exchange
of hedonistic intentions
lust is sugar and snails
and a happy puppy wagging his tail
lust is two bodies
sweating together
in the heat of passion
moaning
writhing squirming scratching
biting
pushing, for the polar opposites of torture
perhaps one day I will learn to love
unconditionally till death
but i think lust is
good, too
