the heartbreak
and endows the defeated with bravery?”

“I covet him.
His hot body over mine,
sweaty and smelling like grass
after the rain.
I want to live that moment of Eros
again and again and again.
Never having enough of him,
the masculine image of me,
a piece of art,
unique masterpiece of God,
that is calmly sleeping beside me.”
