i

love

you

r skin

has

con(stellations)

(versations)

that speak

Universes

about

Life

and rise rise

it's and and and

fall

again

like your belly

when my

lipsmeetyours

rushing-river-rapids-running

down

your

spine;monsoons

that too-soon

give

way and

collapse;

to quiet rumbles of thunder

in the distance.
