And You Wondered Why I Came

It was the way you captured
my attention
the taste of your words
like salt on skin
earthy, intimate

and I devoured you
through them

Satiation fleeting
I came
and came back for more
while you teased my appetite
on the tips of your fingers

Fucked without touch

Reached deep
to find secret places

then turned me into poetry

You wrote me as a rainbow
melting into iridescent crude
penned me down
rendered me more than naked
inked your compositions
with slick pools
of my crumbled composure

For the low, low payment
of my adoration
and dampened panties

a little bit of dignity

But who needs that?

I gave it all freely
to have that tang glaze my tongue
feasting on your phrases
and reveled in delicious shivers
as irresistible syllables slid
under my skin
