skin against mine
in the crowded
subway car at rush hour,
nudging me ever so slightly
during the curves
of my commute
as if to remind me
not to forget
he is there

Oh, Kimiko, well done! Oddly, I've had the same experience, except not in a positive way! Maybe you will inspire me to write that.
ReplyDeleteThe "during the curves" moment plays so well, the double meaning... great! Amy
This was sneaky fun. Loved the images.
