Percussion

Selfish
I lie
on listless sheets
your whisper
beats
dab and patter
like soft rain.

My skin is a cushion-
a sponge
soaking
in your soft percussion
                                 Beats.

My body's a bridge-
an arch
rising
aching
over deep crescendo
                               Beats.

My love is a pulse
thumping
in my neck
pounding
in my blood
rushing
in my head
washing
me
away
in
sweet
heat.


Selfish
I lie listless
My heart
              Beats.

This has a refreshingly oroginal rhythm. It sounds like a whisper of passion in my head. I like the way it reads. I can really feel the beat. Really great piece, thanks for sharing it.
