Concupiscence

I want you at twilight,
in my room.
(Be it under me,
                        ontop of me)
The thousand faces
of every tooth of your smile
moan hastily,
                    pant lazily,
                                    pucker,
                                               grin back
                                               at me.

The clouds are shades
the moon pulls over for privacy.

Never again
will there be a
bland
        ordinary night.

The pines are rude in the wind
and always
voyerous
              as I re-enter
      the first breath of life
and you
            (the only thing
                                breathing
                   to me
                                this night)
tremble
gently and lovingly
under my touch,
and so rests the world.
