Break-away Collar

Your intimate animal rumble
native to my spine-bending trout-jumping kundalini
arcs bedroom temperatures
aligns chakras
wakes the yearning yawn to dock
to rock and tumble in water and stones smooth intercourse.

Oh to meet you gnarly dog
a whirligig of high-strung thighs
thumbs up
languid vowels swan-swooning
monsooning
climb a shaky ladder and trumpet that reunion.

Boy, do you see how sincerely
I collar this intimacy
do you feel a snag a bend in the rod the slow and teasy
slack and sleazy hand-over-fist reel to reach
the end of that tie-me-up-rope Love,
that long leash you say you’re on?
