Costly
COSTLY
binding and blinding
pale and fluorescent
under white silk
parted
her skin seethes
fleshy and full
incandescent
like mist off sea
sticky and costly
something out of nowhere
taut blue skin of water
an absentee
lost but free
he is hypnotized
by perfection as
she rolls her soles
against a cold
unyielding wall
curved feminine
legs that beg
for instant
answers
something out of nowhere
taut blue skin of water
an absentee
lost but free
