The Enigma of Desire

Eileen! .... Eileen! ........ Eileen! The aches are eating my cigarette; My cigarette is eating my lips; My lips are eating Eileen's face; Eileen's face is clung to the café table. ...A feeling of empathy Urged my face to fall down too. A spasm takes it back Toward the heavy blue sky. Eileen! .... Eileen! ........ Eileen!
