Acting the Asshole for all the Right Reasons

… didn’t want my skin
to make a promise
my meat and lightning
couldn’t keep

Skin can be treacherous
a snake sheds
skin for absolution

You turn
silence into song
doubt into depth
unaware how love’s
engendered

Skin on skin
is a common goal
sparks fire fine as far
as that goes
but silence and depth
deserve lightning
