the other side
my life is full of married men--
or men who might as well be.
me the comma
the comet
as one brief explosion
before they tuck in their tails and
go back home to momma
who's safe and comfortable.
who's flesh is more than mere attraction
a momentary escape.
"A common theme" the wise ones say
"Transcend yourself"
I nod assent, but
all I meet is more married men.
