Smoking Pot Naked on a Wednesday Afternoon

2004

A stretch mark scar
pulled wrinkle tight
	dry
	white
clitoris sensitive
though the first layer of nerves has been pruned back 
with searing metal.
Not to deaden
but to enliven;
To awaken the flesh beneath that is not yet desensitized
	to touch
	(tongue warmth breath)
like the head of an uncircumcised penis.

It is sex presented in the same manner that
my lungs desperately shunt oxygen to 
the blood-crack looking glasses of my eyes.
The purple stock cinematic	 
        1. curve of a breast beneath the tricep
	    nipple half-pinched, quiet, and dirt pink;
microcosms and micro-orgasms
supernova in bright muscles inside (inside).

There is a point when "fuck" turns into "sadness."
When love reaches into the heart of your sex,
hooks into and lays open your flesh
	flayed
	displayed
and quivering under the oh O chemical burn.
When your hydrogen tumbled into me,
carrying with it the shame of a disobedient orgasm,
sex pulled me from the inside out
like a warm sock out of the dryer.

Pour me a glass of gasoline 
and let's light this fucker up.
