I'm a boston writer
living below the rich
slinging booze at the bar
and drinking at them afterwards
I realized that I'm always in a bar
either in front
or behind the fucker

The Crush
by Matthew D'Abate
You are gorgeous.

No drink could match
the thirst I have
for your golden skin
an ocean that is your hair
would not fulfill
sticking my fingers
into the tide pools
and tasting the salt.

I imagine
before sleep
you are the pillows beneath my hands
my sheets a spread of your skin
blankets that are your fingers
pushing down towards my stomach

this is the crush
the process of finding then wanting

perhaps you would allow me
to express my admiration
in the finest way I know

to see how we move
when there are no other words
but: more
and to make you come
with my crush yearnings
and some delicate
insertion

This language of
the flesh

time's and everybody's
antagonist

these little devious words
a rub on a magic lamp
bubble prayers
blown into the night
and the more I write
the more I can see
you and I in said acts
right before
my thirsty mouth
and my sleuth hands

as we make our
most subtle
pornography.
