Spilling

as gestures go

a stretched out blink 

a wink slow

like hello |

teeth, eyes, 

your lopsided smile:

ran away with me |       

your pink palm

held up wide

so I could kneel

interrogate a whim |

breath strangling 

space to wriggle 

bud & bloom penetration | 

squeeze a moment

think me awake again  

emptying yourself

to soften others | 

we quarrel dewy eyes

that merge us fondly, 

in its shortest supply |
