First Poem for You
"I like to touch your tattoos in complete
Darkness, when I can't see them. I'm sure of
Where they are, know by heart the neat
Lines of lightning pulsing just above
Your n****e, can find, as if by instinct, the blue
Swirls of water on your shoulder, where a serpent
Twists, facing a dragon. When I pull you
To me, taking you until we're spent
And quiet on the sheets, I love to kiss
The pictures in your skin. They'll last until
You're seared to ashes; whatever persists
Or turns to pain between us, they will still
Be there. Such permanence is terrifying.
So I touch them in the dark; but touch them, trying."
- Kim Addonizio
