Strange Affair

Shape the dark with sweat
The tears I'll soon forget
Within another woman
Yet to know my bed
Inspiring shapes
In liars' blue skies
But there's something wrong
Here; too sleek the eyes
Seething passion
My adult attention child
Now I want your love
Now I've got your style
Wild star of the universe
May I converse
With you for just awhile?
Traverse these same themes
Traipsing on through
All these little things
Of the soul
Of the world
Of your sex
Of your eyes
Of your hair
Of your being; if not
Of someone's close despair
