stake claim

nightly you stake claim
mantra though terrain unchanged
I was always yours

marked

breathe you in lungfuls
to suffuse from skin and shout
marked territory

into molecules

into molecules
I'd rub myself and dance with
your scent in the wind

rise to greet

glad to see me or
do winter's fingers tickle?
nipples rise to greet

Inspired by the inauguration


Well, sort of. My eye caught the following article about hope-filled Inauguration attendees and the gears started working.

so many people
sexpectations running high
Inauguration

wanted on Craigslist -
inauguration action
hope is contagious

Craigslist Obama:
"We are the change that we seek"
Try me for a change

tongues

novelty fades with
cherry stem knots and piercings
speak to me in tongues

last call

what drives you to drink
after bartender's last call
thirst or loneliness?

high on novelty
discovery is cocaine
stranger in my bed

til night's end

love me til night's end
at dawn heart is full again
armour for the day

mask drops

darkness sets the stage
partner to perfect eclipse
your mask drops at night

break and enter

we break and enter
lovers shatter everything
glean meaning from bones

wave after wave

warmth, wave after wave
swarms sussurating, fragrant
honey in its wake

entropy rules all

entropy rules all
everything colder darker
arms hold me closer

closed eyelids

you give your body
now speak of dancing visions
behind closed eyelids

water follows the moon

despite hidden face
the water follows the moon
the tides dream of flight

pleasure lines

witnessing the birth
of pleasure lines at your brow
I kiss my newborns

lips meet

lips meet as year ends
starved hearts keep doors open to
possibilities
