Chocolate Milkshake
Sweating metal canister,
beading liquid drops that
meld with the water from my hands,
your eyes, that … oh you spilled a little there
Fluid food the flow sublime,
sucking lumpy first kisses
where I leaned and you
learned. Only to — well,
maybe a little less tongue?
Half- full, rock salt canister of
hand -holding—dribbles that
cranked out urgency. So
that is the sex they talk about
Brain freeze, eyes freeze, heart froze
over with your eyes on her
hair, (why are you holding her
in all those pictures?)
Chunks of you promised and
how can I trust you, swirl
the flavors of copper and chocolate—
Choke on the slide
Last drop, your turn, my taste
I always loved the way you chewed
your straw
but hated how you slurped.
