 “The Touch of His Hands”

Every night, after the darkness fell

There would come a man

Made of empty and hollow bones

His delicate hands

Would rub against mine

And I helpless, vanishing away

 

He left me so cold

Astray

In rapture

I have never felt so bare

These bruises of mine

These cuts and sores

Ache with yearning

For the hands of that man
