Loverspeak

for you

tongue spin words
that only your ears can hear
letting mouth shape
each perfect syllable
caressing your name
'tween teeth and lips

hands touch skin
that only your senses can feel
across cloud-brushed skin
tracing my future
on your unmarked palms

ears hear songs
that only your body can sing
savoring every passion-filled moan
every gently-loved groan
every pleasure-laden sigh

I hear you chant my name
I feel your fingers sear my skin
I echo your intensifying moans
I feel your love in me
moving
thursting
circling
driving

home.

Counting Fingers

to hold temper for not to shout
at the playing god person
relaxing in front of me.

Resplendent in white
twiddling his fingers, he looks at me
with nonchalant air and giving
me his juridical decision regarding
my life. Donominating it into
punitive weeks.

I never could abide gods
nor the way they hold our
lives in their Pilate-cleaned hands
and juggle them in jest.

Make-Up

The mirror across me seemed to
whisper her denials and complaints
of being hidden

Away from the scarring public
unable to see their worded cries
and truer lies

I refused to listen to her petitions
made more urgent by its screams
my wet sponge

Covered my disfigured past
with paled foundation
Making me glow in
my faked paleness

This time letting the people
paint their colors on me
so I would not  be anymore
scarred
