Image for the poem a kryptonite of flesh.

a kryptonite of flesh.


 
a thunder of delicacy  
as formidable as it is tender  
under my ear  
almost to neck  
but  
not quite  
 
close enough  
to distinctly hear—  
 
every.  
single.  
breath.  
taken.  
 
which is done  
intentionally,  
of course  
 
as that spot  
is where  
all my willpower  
goes to die  
 
a  
 
slow  
 
glorious  
 
death.  
 
that spot,  
 
of my most sensitive flesh  
 
wired by nerves  
directly connected  
to my innermost core  
the sanctum  
of all  
that is  
welcomed torture  
and where  
unmitigated  
willing abandon,  
gladly  
awaits to be tapped,  
forgetting  
anything and all  
 
 
only to say  
YES  
 
 
 
 
 
 
to everything.
