plucking feathers from pillowcases
watching them start out thin
then spread out wide and free
i'd like nothing more than
to be like a feather contained
only under you
while you drape my face with kisses
and i envelop your body with fingertips
instead of digging into these pillows
watching the seconds tick past
with a heap of flimsy plume to my right
and a burning craving for you
in the left of my chest cavity
