An Open Current
These lines will form an gaping wall.
A lovers knock could make it fall,
Could make my racy skin crawl,
And force my lipid tongue to scald.
I'll let the lines drift slowly apart
To break the dam surrounding my heart.
To watch him lethargically graze in the night.
To watch his expression when I do not fight.
