Sing
like your tongue got tied
in a moment of passion
& you cannot untie
the knot —
Pray
like tomorrow will not come
& today is
all the clay you have left —
Live
like life
is inexhaustible
& a furious ocean
of time and space —
Think
how the universe is ever-expanding
& all you want
is someone
to hold you closer —
Love
like you are starving
for another being
to see into
your beautiful soul
& touch your bones from within —
Feel
another's skin
like your skin wants
to be felt —
hot, gentle, & knowing,
like molten lava
springing from the lips
of a horny god.
