Science of Skin
Come lay here beside me
let me feel the unfathomed complexity
of Gods creation,
under weight of my arms,
the heat and cool dexterity
of flesh,
let me gently abate
fear within,
entwine in healing
science of skin
Come lay here beside me
close as bodies of mass combine
in small quarters,
under weight of my arms,
displace particle's time
in motion,
re-think and debate
theory of space,
confine me a endless
pallet to taste
Come lay here beside me
Let me marvel at artful objects
in creator’s hand,
under weight of my arms,
the vein that constricts
to expand,
the eyes that dilate
for night,
blood beating heart
for passion of sight
Come lay here beside me
dust of the earth in the gardens
of man,
under weight of my arms,
molecules move for the pardon
of mass,
lungs forming shape
deep within,
breathing God’s grace
the science of skin
