Fever

let me see yr
Secret Places/
the ones hidden behind
yr clothes—
Reveal yourself
unabashed unconstrained
by pernicious modesty
deadly shyness—
show me yr
Secret Places/
the ones hidden beneath
yr skin—
there is no
Rescue/we have only
one another &
it must be enough/
so let us
bleed into
one another/
Dissolve into
one another/
putting a smile
on the moon’s
dead face/
making life
a little less
terrifying……
