'He' is heat
born of masculine grace
tenderness with
out any real defiance
just
an achingly sweet
expression of sweet
unguarded want
a fierce tremor
in the hands of
good intent
a disposition
near heaven sent
marauder and redeemer
all at once
he is my most loving
schemer
at such crossroads of convention
I don't know if I should kiss him
or shake him
until his teeth rattle
his gull knows no shame
but with me I suppose
turn about is fair game
I really can't blame him
for rattling me from
my luxurious cage
I wounded his heart with
my alluring blunder
I cornered him with his
own insecurities and
he reacted in what I should
have known would be
for him
a very predictable
manner
trust me my love
my cut was inadvertent
I only wished to tickle your
tender affections
not a braid them with a
serrated knife....................
