I would rather spend a day

I would rather spend a day with you.

Then wait a day till eternities end.

A day in the garden of our own delights and choosing

Then to be lost on the eve of Armageddon. 

Shall we count down the time till our own demise?

Or revel in the now and here you are,

The delight of the hollow of your neck, 

The slim softness of muscles nape

Pulls my lips in.

I would rather spend a day with you

then lose an hour to salubrious thought

And engage in salacious delicious delights.

I long for you.

Oh.  How I long for you.

Whether here or there,

My desire is infinite.

I would rather

Spend a day and night, a day and night

All our days and nights

With you.

So still here with all my longing and want

Desire raging and coursing

For your strength, your intellectual, your politics,

Your smoldering sensuality that you so blithely 

Know nothing of or cannot acknowledge.  

Still here orbiting the planet of love and desire.

I would, really, rather spend,

A day with you.
