Fluid Situation

John Zedolik

Whiskey sways you at the top
of the stairs so my embrace
will save you from a harsh descent
and allow the shepherding of you
into the bedroom for the best
of your full and open body topped
by the Kentucky bourbon of your
kissing breath that further pricks
my callow lust on this prom night
on which to make many possible
mistakes if one is too eager to care
among the overpowering heat
of new pleasure among spaces
forbidden but free now to the will
of innocence desiring its melting end
