close your hand

Close your hand

around me
let curling fingers find
the shape of me
feel the growing heat
in your passionate grip
as skin palms skin
feel the hardening rock within

scent musk
taste nectar-peppered air
from tip to tongue
from lip to lung
nose me in

feel full of the aroma
of my longing
feel the burning hunger

of my yearning

it grazes your heart

phrases the beat

calls the rapid drum to heat

my rising blood
is in your hands

draw up the flame

bite

eat

drag teeth

curl tongue

taste brewing fire

sense the building

coming burst

hold fast

hold tight

the grip

the grasp

the climbing gasp

and then

the bruising spurt

yours to taste

yours to gulp

your tongue swirl

buttering the tip

this lovers' slip

sliding from your moving mouth

this curdling cream

this salty soup

these viscous drops

these silken drips

this glazing on your golden lips

let flow the stream

let go the gleaming sup

that it may drain upon my belly

for you to lap again

and taste and eat

the intimate essence of me

as I drown in an ecstasy

of emptiness
