in the midst of you

by Jim Benz

I lost my soul in your vagina
but didn't really mind
it was just one of those things: surreal

like flower petals
in a volcano, pulsating

and when my dreams came up
for air, I didn't mind
that all my passion stayed behind

like a moist explosion, grinning
in the midst of you

I told you! I did not have vex with that verb!
Have you gone plumb stark-raving-naked crazy? What the heck's wrong with the word flower?
