Why Did You Kiss Me? Poem by Wanda Swim Strunk

Who are you to kiss my lips
Unannounced
Without request
Stir up Kansas sized tornadoes
Within a sentimental prison
That has no bars
What ties and binds us
Is invisible
What I am not sure about
Is why
If you speak it
Does it have to become acknowledged
Why have you taken the time
To watch me and figure me out
Dominate me
Treating me like a wife
What in my story do you want me to reveal
An earthquake versus a tornado
Is never a good thing
Across a field I breathe your wind
If you touch down I would consume you
Then we would own each other’s souls
And what would that get us?
