tell tkm to reserve that cottage

what a
coincidence
that
you too
know
my buddy
tkm
tkm
whom
i last waved
bye bye to
two mid mays ago
right here
in montreal
having
welcomed him to
aerodrome dorval
renamed
pierre trudeau

tell tkm to reserve a cottage
for you and me
for us
in that
dainty
cosy place
of his
a place
that
i see so
vividly
in my mind
even though
i am yet
to see it

tell tkm
you and i
we
need a place
just
for
you and i
just
for the
two of us
to go to

i want
to go
there
with you
and i
do not
mean
there
because
we are
already
there
i want to
go there
with you
and i
do not mean
there,
as in
tkm's there

i mean
i want
to go there
with you
explore with you
all that there is
there

there
where lovers
explore
and bring
their dreams
to life

i want to
go there
with you
there
where you unplug
from the world
and race a finger
down a sated
and naked back

i want
to go there
there
where
you put away
the essays
and the statements
and the remote control
so that we can snuggle closer
ever so closer together
to smell together
that unmistakeable
aphrodisiac
that enticing, intoxicating, exhilarating
smell of glowing aftersex
that is a sure harbinger
of even more intense and eager love-making...
