the butt sorely misses
its posse cushion-flesh,
almost vice-versally,
postponing this rimming affair
results in an almost-

its own god-damned sake
sanitizing is make-pretending
once it similarly becomes
a familiar chore

perfect right angles
bookended soles of feet

lifts the seamlessness of skies
and waters into the loft of
blue heavens. this is thus,
where keen horizons thrive on my flights of flying fishes
for their unbroken lines
