Your kiss
was like a tsunami

such
intense
“intensity”

it made even my curls
curl

& my toes curl
as well.

Your caress
was like an avalanche

of such
immense feeling

my libido
(like a cartoon cat)


was left clinging
upside down

on the ceiling.

Your smile
was like...like

please please
no more similes.

Then you removed
your dress

and I felt yes
(yes)

unable to catch
my breath

as if I had been
metaphored to death.
