there are kisses



there are kisses that

fall down your body

like a trickle of water

taking a crooked path

over every surface

hidden or exposed


there are kisses that

are erotically unique

like sucking through

a straw

like guzzling from a

wide-mouth bottle

like slurping off of

a spoon


there are kisses

that are awkward

like teeth accidentally

banging together

like stubbing your toe

in the dark

like a punch to the neck


and then there are kisses

that are only imagined

like the emoji sent in

an email

like the kiss that seals

an envelope shut


like the one that hits 

the inside of the window

and bounces back

as the cab pulls away
