mercury (hold it)

What hides and bobs
floating
behind gabardine's curtain?

Chocolate milk skin
espresso hair
decadence.

Candy in my mouth's
most delicious
moment.

If for even a
flash
it crosses your mind--

one brilliant second?

Let me see behind the curtain
let me be a deep, hidden
secret

an experiment
folded away on some yesterday.

for you.

For me
infinite pleasure
in a
private,
frozen
time.
