'En Catimini'

In the sun or under the moon, I care not what graces the skies

when my hands relish the heat of your burning skin,

before me a sculpture of muscle, flexed and primed

for me to move across the spectrum of senses with,

to find the slow, deep release of the energy

that keeps me alive and takes my breath

so I may die… again.
