missing the mark
just to kiss in the dark
reaching for buttons
make this so sudden

playing coy to my candor
I’d fall down and pander
taste the hems of your skin
part my lips and go in

encasing my waist
while you take in my taste
No, I didn’t think it through
or, I just didn’t tell you

lapse in your breathing
vulnerable, heart beating

lights off, can’t see it
lights off, I omit

Lights on, so sly,
your head on my thigh,
coy in your crown,
trick me unwound.
