his primeval back.

An adventure I’d been told…
I knew nothing of how to ride

With invariable precision!

Leaving a note on your car while you’re working,
As flowers are delivered in bloom.
Later, rubbing your feet to ease the hurting.
Over dinner, listening to your day.
Engaging every detail as your...

Bare butt, bare back.
It’s lying down where many women...

It’s the saddle of youthful days,
The one he rode so...
