Inexorable undulations
demand precise punctuation.
Acute, tender slaps,
butterfly whip flicks,
stings, whallops and snaps.
Breathless, smarting intervals…
Shameless, taut supplicant-
SMACK!
Flagrant, flawless, perfect.
Flashfire flares,
ignites dendrite dynamite.
Deft,
intimate,
ultimate,
triumphant
surrender.
Surly soup,
burbling slothfully,
turgid crystals of discontent melt.
