I want my fingers knotted, and
Skimming ungrazed bones.
Longing is too much for me, but
I drag it unthinkingly out.
I feel my lips tighten with drought, of
Curves and planes and and corners and
Debate how best to trick you here.
There is no poetic chase; just a sturdy wait.
My hearty wishing no match for this snowy late, but
When wrists and jaws and hips are sparse,
And I feel the lack like like a ringing toll,
A sort of inner frost,
I'll twist up in literature and linen,noting what others have said
Take to a warm postion and read about poetry instead.

Real.
