fragile tendrils weave tender memories
of unsleeping her--
how we stirred the bedposts!

tonight,
i broke a bottle of cheap wine
against your fence;
i drunk from its jagged mouth,
the blood from my lips
blooming into the zinfandel,
leaving a blush chablis.

keep fresh: thy thighs with whom I've met
for when next we meet thy bud be wet

rainless night! o mercy to thee.
faceless to thy slumber: I heed.

beams alight with this day's blessing
allay the stir of your undressing
wicked girl, your tempting motion
prick the dick, a bloody ocean
