Sweet recall and striking insight: stinking shock
to make my heart murmur and pound
I wake up in reflex to call or f*ck you
then shake my head and lay back down
Scorn and bless my laughing nonsense,
I swear I'll die before I drive
Treat me as some spectacular roadshow,
imprinted beautifully but never divine
   {Do I have to push questions?}
So: what do you think of when twilight comes in quiet & profound --
as the colors soothing, the sunlight waning, bare you trembling over cooling ground?
When do I enfeeble & disturb you?
Your memory, your sudden undoing --
as she's coaxing off your socks and shorts, kisses licked upon your chest and thighs?
When oral fractures feed your ego; as cryptic replication gets you high?
As
Heather brings you chocolates,
Kelly soothes your adolescent antics,
Maryann requites the need of someone longing after you & panting,
I stand inside my own self-doubt?
Or when simple calm settles tight around you too evident to ever break out?

It may be that some are in such awe of you - but most likely - you are too impatient -
Ther's no doubt in my mind you write incredibly well
Altho it's not the best line from above
I was tickled most by"
"I swear I'll die before I drive"
Keep writing!!!
