he craves
what I give
and gave
enabling his addiction
I deprave
waiting for a
waive
watching for his
wave
his hands liberate
my inner slave
he breathes
be brave
as we start
to misbehave
I may allow--
but he saves

knit one purl on
ea scarf for a lover
kept quiet undercover
stitches come undone
around his neck
my alpaca leash
out of reach
yet call and beck
handcrafted protection
my work keeps him warm
inside our perfect storm
this chilly defection
*Notice the rhyme scheme in this poem (abba, cddc, etc). This is an example of envelope rhyme. I am currently knitting a 'dropped stitch scarf.' For all you knitters, click here for directions on how to make your own.

his name feels
fresh on my tongue
my delusion, but real
ancient but young
left and right
loose and tight
black and white
day and night
darling, he sighs
an answered why
his truthful lie
certain and shy
the torrid balance
of well planned chance
this one-word sentence
his heavy glance
owning legions of lovers
between east and west
conceal and discover
my worst, his best
