Angulus by Karen MichelleFalling
on the outside
of extremity, you ask
for lips and eyes
of cottoon wool and mace:
to stun and caress.
But you are only
hard; angular heart
challenging the curve
of any admirer's
approach.
And the boy, you put
on a pedestal of per-
fection
does
not
drink
from your well for
the right reasons.
There is only
chemical intoxication
between pulse points -
no more
(nor less).
There is only
the fabrication
of
desire. 11/23/2006 Posted on 11/23/2006 Copyright © 2025 Karen Michelle
