I know my leaving in the breakfast table mess.
Bowl spills into bowl: milk and bran, bread crust
crumbled. You push me back into bed.

curls a damp wind and runs the circuit
of my limbs. I interrogate the air,
smell Murphy's Oil Soap, dog kibble.

sesame, olive. The nudge of your tongue
behind my top teeth.
To entirely finish is water entering water.

More turning me. Less your arms reaching
around my back. You ask my ear
where I have been and my body answers,
all over kingdom come. ~ Amber Flora Thomas

It was horrible. It was as though nature had lost control. As though the smile, as a concept, as a manifestation of pleasure, had been a mistake, for here on the face of Swelter the idea had been abused. ~ Mervyn Peake
