You Should Know
 
              
          By Khristy Nickerson •
Your red dress 
molds your body
In the shape
of a vase,
but when gently
 unzipped
and no longer 
gripped
your body 
is all over the place 
"Yes, honey.
that dress 
MAKES 
you look lovely"
And only makes me 
act more 
Inarticulate 
than I have been lately 
Your lips move 
so slowly
and carefully-
when frisky 
and apologetic 
when angry, 
They move 
carelessly 
and create images 
far too graphic
Yes, sweetheart, 
It isn't too hard
 to fathom 
when you speak of 
your sorrows 
while dreaming 
mind blowing 
orgasms
