D.W. Rodgers Poet Free verse

Edge

Edge
	chalk on  blackboard
	diamond on glass
	knife on steel.

Edge
	bitter coffee	
	sweet milk
	steaming.

Edge
	nervous smile
	green eyes glance at blue
	watching me watching you.

Edge
	flushed face	
	rapid breathing
	nipples stiffen.

Edge
	lifting auburn hair
 	revealing vulnerable nape
	whispers yes.

Edge
	tip of your tongue
	circles your lips
	foretaste of pleasures.

Edge
        tongue flits from lush lips
	laps last of cream
	white teeth smile.

Edge
	finish your coffee
	back to work,
	knowing our paths
        will cross again.
