Ode to Softness

Sometimes I think about

a woman’s belly

The kind that is soft

and just a little warm

That cups into your hand

And puckers under your lips

Bellies are underrated

Attention is often given

To more explicit places

But the belly is tender

A windowsill made of cotton

to rest your head

With sides to gently grasp

When you press yourself

Against your lover

Who you have to remind yourself

Is really only mortal

Because to write her off

As merely a goddess

Would be to not acknowledge

The intricate flaws

That make her

Maddeningly irresistible

She is a boundless story

Written in every genre

Satisfying to the mind

The eye

The body

To rest against her

While you gaze out into the world

Is the pinnacle of bliss
