city lights

i feel good

someone told me i feel

and i said you should feel me

and push me against the wall

this would be a good apartment

to hook up in look at

the huge windows to walk

naked in front of without

a sense of shame

and looking dramatically out the window

hand resting casually

on the hip

seeing the sparkling houseboats

and oracle park a new neon light

shimmering against my chest

i’ve never felt so high

as in the city lights

lie on the floor feeling music 

and feeling myself

in a floral arrangement of curls

and bubblegum fingerprints


i feel good on the elevator

and when i take your coat

and feel the cold on my stomach

as we go out into the city
