GENERATOR

generator

a collection of summer anxieties
leave fingerprints among the bookcases

the heat wave doesn’t state
we should stay indoors
but we do—

to sit and contemplate the click
of two synapses coming
together so easily

how sensitive
you are to the affectionate
necking of a hand to your shoulder

            sex is not your generator.
