Self-sooth

There isn’t a wrong moment to caress yourself

undress yourself

explode into the ether

once more

become it all

made of pleasure and senses

sensations craving seasons

birthed in rainwater

rose water streaming down my face

between my breast

my own universe

and every piece of me floats off wandering

Sunsets and backwoods

you were sunsets and backwoods
brought me under, drowned me baby
then coming back through frosted windows
my ever after
my everlasting
sip
dripped in painted rays
in another way, on another day you’ll find me
until then
chocolate hues of bellies and life’s sweets
expired love
savoring you
Oh the opaqueness of a stale smoke
