when i look at the body <br />i do not look <br />for a name <br />i only see the contours <br />of the body <br />looking for the map <br />and the signs <br />where i may finally <br />get in <br /> <br />body to body <br />just this <br />no names just places <br />plain touch <br />loveless and so careless <br />this moment <br />and then the next and the next <br /> <br />no strings no bridge <br />just the flow of the river <br />no docking no ports <br />no stopping <br /> <br />just this kiss for today <br />and then <br />nothing for what tomorrow may <br />say <br /> <br /> <br /><br />RIC S.
