Love Your Hands


Use them to caress her.

No, to consume each

and every inch of her body.

Memorize the mountains, the valleys, the hooks.

Please, trace your initials on her skin,

let them seep into her bloodstream.

Travel through her veins, live off

the rhythm of her heart pumping,

fall asleep to the song of her lungs.

Discover new realms of her body,

don’t let one patch of skin escape

the tips of your fingers.
