telephone dreams

Fingers
slowly tracing from the
folds of the ear
along the edge of jaw and up
over chin to slightly moist
parted
      lips

Trace
               fingerprint to grain
of muscle
     opening
voice
warm breath

[Around

Silence
       over space
presence
felt
heart beating breasts
together
pink nipple
to
red]

pulsing inside
as
electricity
carries dares
          fingers trace
down
between slopes
up over
Eastern mountain to pink
erect pinnacle

(shudder across night
exhalation moan so slight
so deep inside touching
opening canals to
flow chemical
across
    interstice)

shadows
parted
sound lifting
from tandem
up towards sky
down
    to
           opening spaces

fingers
     drawing patterns
around
belly button
       south

[across
          miles
distant but not
            impassable
    spaces
in
      between]
