you've got to come
a little bit more quickly
because i'm in here
warm and smooth
curling up with
the dazzle of imagination
like water spilt over
glistening stream beds
aching for feet
to spread the drops
and tickle the fancy
of celebrating the second hand
as i whisper encouragment
to speed up until
your arms wrap around
my sides
and i refuse to move
faster than the distance
between you, i, and saturday evening
