Fractures

Tracing fingertips on the hot soft textures

of your skin. Liquid sin held together softly

by membranes of tissue, an osmotic tap slowly

pulls the essence. Your passion, in collodial

suspension of lipids and saline. A colloquial

expression, an impression of summoned presence

made manifest in this act. A factor which presents

itself in a single touch. A wounded soul's fractures.
