Poem


Pay close attention 
to the movement of my hands 
ignore 
the ticking,
...close clock. 

Pay close attention
to my breath, spy not 
the wind, haphazard 
through the trees; I may reach
for you, quickening my pace.

Feel my fingers trail 
the soft skin of your back;
my hands hear 
through sweeping,
slow motions.

Feel the scent of my
desire through
the tips of them; it lingers
...on the trail I keep tracing.

Forget...

Remember my touch,
 sounding hard
 cries, soft caresses.

...that I will leave you soon.
