I saw you today,
Remembered your form,
Though I'd forgotten it for a week

(Or two.)

Too long, by any means--
But when I saw it,
Was reminded of its solid comfort
(Or the comfort I dream it offers),
I marvelled at the thought
Of what I would not give
To find that form one evening,
Reclinding on my bed,
Below the window,
(So that my prudish neighbors
Could see the manly shape)
A breathing body pillow,
Waiting to be hugged,
Allowing me only enough time
To crawl beneath the covers
Before it seized me and
Smothered me with itself--
Suffocating me with a kiss--

What a blissful way to go.
