"Aperature"
The furrow
of a young man’s back,
created as he
leans down deep
onto his haunches
giving rise to
knolls and vale
of thick flesh,
amplifies the cadence
of my heart
at the witnessing
of strength,
of elongated muscles
bound to a human capacity
to be stripped
and studied
without recognition,
the camera
in my eye
snaps a thousand
instances of light,
shadow, and depth
to lock away
into the recesses
of my desire for
a time when there is
nothing left.
