Musings and Poetry

My collection of poems, stories, and fitful spurts of creative energy.

Arms & Shoulders

The satisfaction of human contact.

What do I want in a
Boyfriend.
Support?
Passion?
Great conversation?

No. It's as simple as an
Arm around a shoulder.

It can go either way.
His around mine,
Mine around his.

Someone who wants it.
Someone who likes it.
Someone who needs it.

A palm, a sensitive inner arm.
Fingers gently stroking a back or neck.
Chemistry without words or sex.
Closeness and companionship
With a gesture.

An unbreakable connection.

I feel like you completely read my mind when you wrote this. I browsed through some of your other poems, this one spoke really well to me. I also liked Summer Gays, how true is that. Hopefully we can get together and talk over drinks, rather than the internet soon.
