GOOD MORNING VALENTINE (For G)
By: Iris P. Concepcion

No, I press my stomach
Not to feel its wiggle
Nor play wigmam inside
Its intestines
Grinding last night's
Dinner

I press it for
The plenty
Schedules of unswam beaches
Together but separated
As you choose
To subdue and wage battles
With the dirt, mud, sun and boors
The bitches of endless shores

Floating breasts
You abhorred (in sly)
Like twin peaks
Of inferno

Cramming in your
Passion outside
Your girlfriend's innards
Circled and twined

Christmas came as an adult
February arrived as a faggot
With no normal gifts
On sight, sighs behold

The most precious for the heart
Lingered in the throat
As wiped thirst

Iridescently reduced
In that tall glass of water
Crushed ice meticulously cut with love

All years come to naught

But good tidings, good tidings!
Finally consumed.

Happy Valentine's day to a fellow fighter who had endured with me: for my baddest moments that you had turned into sublime rewards after having had to walk the mile and trashing the rowdy, potbellied types.

P.S. That glass with pink hearts was all gizmo. Gooey but a huge base saver. Wink.
