At first,
a hip sway
a bough bending in the wind
reiteration.
Fishmarket lovers wrapped
in classifieds
fingernail
collarbone
leg slide
naked, up
past our bedtimes.
Our laughter has sticky
fingers and a sudden
sunrise.
When I look at her I
feel like a man.
That old crutch called
objectify.
Still,
when she talks I listen—
as if words mean
more when she
says them.
This is really good, Adam. Seriously.
