Start With My Toes

for sugar-cube's poetry mini-slam--an erotic poem--for my husband

Start With My Toes

Sleeping nude as worms
slithered under cool sheets
sex sweat lifts from our bodies
soaking the air with salt scent.

Slithered under cool sheets
start with my toes please, then
slide your tongue from pinky to pussy
saying Pussy is my favorite word.

Start with my toes please, then
spare the rod for later descent.
Smoothing the way with velvet paws
shift into high gear.

Spare the rod for later descent
sussurus spilling from swollen lips.
Soon, I'll sway to your sovereign rule
so quick to take victory lying down.
