Eager Fingertips

sweetly subtle
fingertips skate
across my neck
gliding into the nape
then turn at the 
curve of my shoulder
then back up to
move across my 
vulnerable face 
the fingertips learn
with each motion 
and with each touch
every crevace of my
lips and the softness
of my lashes 
hands inspect
my every feature 
and mold me  
a blind love starved
artist hungry for
a masterpiece
molding me
of passion clay
