Poem

Originally exhibited at the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art

You,
with your back on my chest,
unwind
to the magic
of a late-night movie.

Remember me for faster sign in

My bottom lip
half-kisses and half-tickles
the skin behind your ear.

You
laugh.
And I
almost say:
I love you.

Almost.
