The Skin Cycle III: Better Dog
Hey, hey
Boy like the puppy--
Rare-sweet lips
Strawberry-blossom honey,
Made by hypnotic-buzzing bees.
Hey, hey
Boy like the otter--
Almond eyes, match
Slim-sleek body.
Twisted,
Making a motion--
Casual flex,
Sinew and pelt.
Untamed smile--
Wild from forests
One glance, endless
Flash--
Coy grin.
River-water
Trickles
Off
Fingers
Grow lithe--
Sparkles
Our twilight.
Browned skin,
Shaggy, flaxen--
Bark again
At me,
Hear
Music play.
Human yesterday,
Something
Superior now.
Hey, hey
Boy,
Let me see your
Tail wag--
Let me see your
Heart pump--
Make that smile come out
Delirious.
Hey, hey
Boy,
I know you missed me.
Shake that wet hair,
C'mere--
Hey, hey
Boy,
Time to
Show how you missed me.
