Stay the night
push sleep away with me
throw foggy fingers into thick air
make a mess of dust particles
Stay the night
punch pillows into submission
scrape nails against shins
rub heels and arches and souls
Stay the night
tug on tangled hair
weave and un-weave hands and feet
knot ligaments and interlock bones
Stay the night
wrinkle sheets with shared dreams
brush accidental kisses to skin
churn and settle until golden and sated
Stay the night
shudder the earth and echo the mountains
rival the falling of stars
merge halves of wholes into one
Stay the night...
only, don't.

I can't really say why I am so pleased with this; just know, reader, that I am. Written in an insanely short amount of time. About fifteen minutes, in fact. It shows, doesn't it? Ah, well. Forget you!
Go on, wake up your demons! It'll be fun! <-- Still More Verse
