flesh legacy

weather can't be blamed
for the fogged windows

it's the palpable heat
from within
the car

in their breath
in the hunger to elucidate
the unknowns
the forbidden
passed on unwittingly
by the legacy of past
flesh

submissive hunter
permissive prey
boy and girl
bait and switch
roles

lips move
to a compass unseen

bracing knees
pinning hands
buckled feet
fingers and teeth
stitch and suture
the planes of play

saliva webs the swollen surface
as the privates perform
their march to a destination
once denied

even the errors awaken
new truths
as each act upstages
residues of guilt

fear takes the trunk
as the backseat is taken

perspiring aged
leather seats
provide the arena
where innocence loses
the first of many
battles
to urges
