Early Fingers Make Flowers of All Things

THE tongue makes 
words so hungry
but
i love you 
and
i hate you
//a charter crisply straying
jig-saw shape across the secret-corner 
promises a love for you 
when with you i do not wish to be
but the bedroom's secretly
moist eyes are kissingly 
playing with me _____
and hope is a thief while top-turved
insides need the pleasant 
surprise to be; thy lips a sweet
thing death, wait here\\
