To be loved, is like a messenger
Giving substance to the miscarriages
And pictures of death
The bone quivers and wounds
Of distances which intersect
Like a little golden purse
Giving rise to the snap of Velcro
And the Holy Lands of intimacy
A humbling sensation that listens
Existing in his face of measurements
Teeming with life’s smiles
Those big ones waterproofed
Padded within this woman
Like warm hands all over my skin
Announcing the birth of some new
Condensed infinity
Committed subtlety
Insistent persistence
A place I wanna be
One which never tosses me outa the boat
But more so, would jump into rescue me
Skinny dippin
Ahhh yes, I taste the bright pleasure in your mouth
A perfect place for crime
The kind which breaths between a couple
Not afraid of heights
Darlin, I’d follow you into the 3rd dimension
Perhaps that’s where we met?

Another fantastic write from your magic pen Lee.
And this ending is so very perfect!

this makes me think of my mother, long ago...

I don't know why, but it does, and I'm glad I could smile

Lee J I love it.

As I read it I remembered that in IT we call Agents who work for the client and supposedly us, "those who recruit people to sell or sometimes a shortened word to adequately describe them" and ourselves, those they sell we call "another shortened word".

You can almost say it is likely being in a broken relationship where all was dreams until reality poked it's head up.

Really good words
