No frontier between dream and Monday:
you, closer than a stranglehold,
a bruise on my breast and
imminent pleasure,
(emanent as a neologism...)
us both attentive, mindful
and stranded at each other.
You always think the unspoken
at those moments when
I can almost reach that touchable
freedom of yours and want it, until...
new tides beckon
from my flushed belly:
orchestra of tremors here.
There, along lace curtains,
a choir of sunblinks at their flutters
on a still uncertain morning.
Your heart slows, prudently,
into laps of sleep
licking at the shores of us.

It is only for poetry to know how many stanzas fit into one caress. - Lucie Adams, 2008
