once is twice is
three times enough 
for the heat crazed horny
ready in other words
for the coming
sexual apocalypse 

thrice is fourth
is quatorce 
and law is force
by other means 
or after the fact
always wanting
something you
have never had

no offense but i really held you down
and it really wasn’t vice-versa

so 

if our love was what we said it was why?
can’t i reach you? can’t i teach me
differently? can’t we see it clearly?

if our love was what we said it was
it shouldn’t be quite done 
well not for me to decide
but that’s how it feel 

if our love was what we said it was
why? 

when i bare my teeth to you
it’s like baring my skin 
or my heart
see?

i’ve worn all my rage and lust
and love on my sleeve for so long
there is no alternative to that
once you begin

that’s why the poets say
beware! beware of me!
fairly or not

when i bare myself to you
is it like leaving you
for the very last time

The calm, 
Cool face of the river
Asked me for a kiss.
