Wait

Adrienne Sass Paek

This is not right
Please
Not here
Or now
Not tonight

Please wait

Not you
Not me
Not in this room
Dank with smoke
And void of passion

Please wait

Dirt
Breath
Sweat
Blood
And then

Your weight

Hair in my face
Teeth
On my lips
Arms
Held down by all

Your weight

No no no
I know
That I said no
Crushing me
Consuming me
I bite my tongue

And wait
