of: Mornings ^
one more hour, I said, to keep You close
so I can swallow Your coarse hairs as I
eat You out - one more hour, I said, so
I can wet these sheets and wet them
with soap again later - one more kiss,
I said, because it's just Your tongue I
want to taste - I'll ignore my yeasty
presence. I said, "One more hour,"
because more than I love to fuck - I
want to hold You in My mouth when
I mutter each clumsy, secret word - I
want all of Your pores to hear Me -
And, just one hour, because
you can pick art apart -
because more than I love you,
I Love to feel You There.
