the slow rhythm of your steady breath dark red nipples stood erect the black hairs
on your legs your legs mountain climbing
legs Saturday night dancing legs legs for wrapping

by each wave a roach rushed across
your still arm and i envied it Once the moon fell the stifling air cooled
against you the whole room was eden
taking a taste of you...
and i wanted to taste you just. Once.
