Sleep

Let's go and sleep
like small children
with the sheets twisted up.
Let's sleep and dream
about each other.
Let's sleep with the
covers thrown off our bodies,
getting the warmth we need
from each other.
Let's go and sleep right now,
this afternoon, take a nap
like small children.
We'll never wake
until it's morning again
and then we'll just run
our curious, sensitive fingers all
along each other.
Look with our eyes, feel the
contact it makes way down into
our stomachs.
Then let's go and sleep
all day long
like small children
with the sheets twisted up.
