Shake the skin of yours, I must implore
Rough breathing, mortal chest of yours
The hand, with sweet caress; the cheeks
Soft-spoken lulls, fills the atmosphere.
Roughen dress – dirtied by filth of yore
With florals to disguise the dirt; forlorn
Truly, I seek your warmth with me.
Begging, finding safety within:
Baker, Bunyan, Sinatra
Falling in love with simple ease
Similarity with difference
Silent, brooding, and lonely emotion
Stretches the time with untimely ease.
A switch to Baier, then Croce, then Nico
Then – with brief abruptness; stops.
