Allow My Tongue

Allow my tongue
to have a long walk on you,
from the base of your throat
to between your thighs,
and on the way:
let it lose its way too, yes,
let it climb over the mountains,
take long rests on the pointy peaks,
let it take a deep dive into your navel,
let it wrestle with the sweetness
and saltiness exuding from your waist,
maybe roll over so that it can
walk long hours on the
two soft round half-earths,
also let it explore the sweet split
between the earths,
oh, roll over again so that it can
return to, yes, finding its way
to the deepest cave, and
then let it find and enter it,
let it all wriggle and waggle in the darkness
until you’re breathless and drained
of supporting its long march
all over and inside you.
