Let's Sleep

 In the reality of a quiet house 
 My rose toes wriggle 
 Beneath the weight 
 Of my fleshy thighs;

 Slumber quietly 
 In the dark abyss 

 Between couch 
 Cushions. 

 My fingers find his mouth.
 I press "send," knowing 
 His flesh burns to sleep with me--

 [To really Slumber]. 
 
 He likes the way my curls smell. 
 I am worth his 
 Patience
 And 
 Time.

 My words unfurl 
 And
 Un-crease themselves. 
 They ink precise roadmaps 
 For 
 His hands 

 Aching to explore 
 Every fragile, 
 Floral 
 Part of me. 

 He responds in perfect timing with
 Pixelated 
 Postures 
 And blue eyes. 

 I am as
 Painted as 
 I will ever
 Be.
