Man Glitter

Sawdust thrusts into the visceral air 
as you lust over your woodworker's chair,
where my body will find rest.

Cedarwood sprinkles cling to stalwart sleeves.
Man glitter flits upon your rugged lips,
and I long to kiss them.

LOL! Your title lured me in and made me curious ... now I get it. Didn’t know it was such an attraction (I better go make me some sawdust pronto!).

I love the smell of sawdust, but what's more attractive is a handyman.

Thanks, Kim. I saw the phrase "sawdust is man glitter" on a t-shirt.

My husband is building me a greenhouse and raised beds! He wasn't always a handyman, but is learning much, and looks good in the sawdust spotlight. Thanks for your visits.
