See your vast translucent universe of yesterday
Through the concrete window of a prisoners wall
And feel the velvet liquid throb as it explores your veins
Let it surround your soul as it devours the rhythm of your heartbeat
...
In a caramel ecstasy
Open the soft naked vein with a needle like glass
And watch as slow pools of secret kisses
Squirm from long oceans of remorse
Salt your wound with guilt of morning sex
Once fragrant perfume now eternally ruined
By bone deep embarrassment in the betrayal of a lover
Then write nude metaphors to say that which your lips could never mutter
Pray they all overlook it, and think it justifies applause of other "works"
