Ice Cream

The motivation
Of your attention
I didn’t want to know
Was it my guard
Which I discard
Whenever I’m secure
That mislead you

To think you should
Formulate it so clear

You might need this
You might be misplaced
I’m not flattered
That you chose me
No matter how
Hot the flesh how
Strong the wish

Reveals how little you know me
And how misplaced I feel
Causing no more than
W hat you’re feeding me
Feeding me does

I wish you could feel that pacific love
Or go on swimming in that vague attraction
I wanna keep you
I might have some phantasies, too

In speaking up
You pushed me down
Far lower than I’d welcome
There I won’t stay
We can’t relate
In such a way

Can we stand the test
Of the expressed
Desire for sex
Another spoon
Of the ice cream
That you’re giving me
