Languor\'s Whispers
Languor\'s Whispers
Languor\'s Whispers
*Straps stripped,
tans’ stripes,
laps and lips, lush
soft locks.
Languor’s whispers
to longing, listening.
*
The release
of play and please,
quietly now allowed.
Two
perfects the crowd.
*
A lick, a life.
The lyric lazed within,
the link
of glow and glimpse,
the jewels
of just ourselves.
*
Lying in.
Lambency from shirk,
the glints
from whys and whines
(work), the shoosh
of sigh-by-sigh
drumming of the hum.
*
Friendless.
Hand-in-hand’s routine
routed, de-planned:
forwarder, franker, fresher,
serious leisure.
Louts – us –
dedicated layabouts,
blunt
and blameless (would-be).
*
Touch, and touch’s could-be
deep shallows, lap
and kiss, sense-sipping lips,
finger-tips.
*
The taste-sniff
sniff-taste
hear of here,
the see
of near-bounded, no,
the near-boundless sea.
*
Touch, touch, touch.
Hopes, love, luck,
perfect just,
a right too much.
