~Multiple wOw~

our friction
is fulfillin'
you're fillin' me up
spillin' the cup
thrillin' me with your yum yum luv
of which there is no end
or "let's play pretend"
we don't need props
costumes and handcuffs and riding crops
leave the hot fudge sauce in the kitchen
you taste just fine
you are sufficient
with efficient grace
I put a blush on your face
with my giddyup rhythm
that just won't quit
giving you more than
just a little bit
I'm lit up
luminous
sparkling for miles
spread out like L.A.
you love the view
you imbue me with
multiple wOw
I don't know how but
you don't need *Maxim* or *GQ* or *Esquire*
you know me completely
my brave spelunker
my match
my one true mate
before you is a big blank
and at last I can thank kismet
for all the recesses I missed.
