Reruns 2014

  

if I had it to do all over again

 I know I would  still do it

even  knowing I should not

 knowing it can't last

that desperate grasp holding on

a chess master who is

distracted from the game board

by her protruding chest

 or deep dark gaze  or worse

 The depths I imagine I might reach if inspired

I do it all over and over in my head

 always feeling the landscape

 with the tips of my fingers or tongue

 or a more potent part of my anatomy

throbbing always

 wanting to want it

stoking up my own fires

with the image of her my head

filing it all under Cardinal knowledge

if I could do it over

those few precious moments

 I would and I do already

like a rerun in my brain
