warm blankets

do you really think

my poems are too intimate



with too much sly heat



am i too much



i did my laundry today and

i saved the flannel blankets for last

so when i crawled into the futon



the dryer heat would still linger



but i am not going to say

how you could possibly torch

and night of passion



or how just your embrace

would be all the sly heat

one could stand



i will just say good night

to you where you are and



me with my night alone
