Twilight (romeo stories)

~ Harlan Didrickson

I remember
twilight
I’m in bed before
you you come to
couplebed after me
lifting the sheet
crawling in like
deli meat into
sandwiches
you sidle up
to me like a
magnet I smell
the soap from
your face fresh
like the ocean
your body is cool
to me like a mother’s
wash cloth
when we touch
arousal kissing and
loving Romeo
where have you
gone
