Poem via Sir Richard’s on FB.
when i have thought of you somewhat too
much and am become perfectly and
simply Lustful….sense a gradual stir
of beginning muscle, and what it will do
to me before shutting…understand
i love you…feel your suddenly body reach
for me with a speed of white speech
(the simple instant of perfect hunger
Yes)
how beautifully swims
the fooling world in my huge blood,
cracking brains A swiftlyenourmous light
—and furiously puzzling through, prismatic, whims,
the chattering self perceives with hysterical fright
a comic tadpole wriggling in delicious mud
