Ectoparasites
I let the air caress my skin because no man wants to
and because lonely is a tick which has embedded itself in me
and injected me with its poison
and my soul is sick with the loneliness fever
and it’s only a matter of time until my body succumbs to the disease
Let then the kiss of air linger while it may
my lady fair and hold thee thy love for another day
and one worthy to touch thy hair with loves caressing finger
