from the ABC set ∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙∙this poem book that he gave

embrace a tender blush of page
as light to a gentle lantern
placed on the highest point.
reddest velvet against
black leather are
the sensual moans
amidst the bestial howls
arouse,
unfocused,
animal.
leopard print forests
and language in cages.

for Sahib, always
