Rockin’ Beneath the Sheets

Airless sweaty fucking,
Mirror-glow-like
Peripheral gloom,
Attention on only you,
On only me,
On us only,
Our private cosmos of worshipped details,
Cheekbones, thighs, fingernails,
Toes, palms, ears,
Loci, scents, triggers.

Time lost in plain day,
Time lost in the dub in the reggae,
Time lost in melting flesh,
Warm breath
And the urge to rub
And rub
And rub...
