capillaries opening, a pink tinge to the surface

secret frictions of form
they broke against my knees
trumping an entire culture
slipped up my thighs
the long muscles of the arms
a few quivers
calloused hands, a rib cage
then a pulse
the backs of the knees
a breathless moan
the small of the back
unbearable
the length of the spine
