Figuratively
This poem’s gonna get in your face.
I swear - it’s gonna start with you.
This poem is potent.
It’s gonna step up behind you
and show you
right where it’s at.
Make you lay down and beg
for more.
It will definitely
have it’s way with you.
Shove you right back in your seat
and you’ll want it
just like that.
You simply can’t do without it;
and you know it.
You’ll make excuses;
be driven, to see it,
more and more. This poem will
make it so very hard
to just say no, and mean it.
Your eyes will be compelled
to follow this poem
down and down,
bit by bit,
to it’s final, trembling line
and just when you think it’s over,
it’ll reach up beneath you
and make you wish,
so very much,
for just a little
bit
more.
