I’m not excited by you

And how exciting is that?

Still a man’s gotta get laid
And you are a place to lie
So here we are
Lying

My blood does not boil
With anticipation
Sex with you is largely
Anthropological:

I show up
Dive into your body
Devour your affection

Sit in your yard
In my draws
Eat your dirt
And swallow
And trigger

Watching  you sleep so
You don’t watch me sleep.
