FRANKLY

When in my bedroom

he sat there,

adorable.

 

He sat there

in laughter,

disaster untouchable.

 

When he counted the movies

& then added the Wars,

When he smudged the eyeliner

all over yours...

When he asked if I knew him

& revealed who he was...

So small a world...

So few boys to love.

 

But the fun never left us

though we could not stay,

And blue clouds descended

to join in the fray,

On top of him there

and finally touching...

Going so slow -

each touch is like fucking.
