Seduction

Appropriating my every move
with voracious satisfaction
fed by the impermanence of our days
dressed by the comfort
and excitement
of everything about me
that is unknown,

you undo me from my environment
prod me outside the jurisdiction
of other people’s judgement
urge me to live
to full extent
life in minute detail
conceived in anxiety
both carnal and imaginary
even as you confine my attention
to the sole purpose of your intervention –
the reality of you.
