Your Serious Eye

I love your serious eye

Your crooked brow

I love how it softens when I kiss your mouth

When my hand cups the back of your head

Fingers tangled in your warm glossy hair

I love how you labor to breathe in my country boy embrace

I ain't lett'n this woman go

She doesn't want delicate, she want her man strong

Like a drag off a cheap cigarette

Like a slug off a mason jar

Your serious eye tells me this.

    oh man, so nice, the labored breathing of passion, and calling yourself a country boy is pure sweetness
    i think loving a man always requires seeing and embracing the boy in the man

  2. I haven't had a slug off a mason jar in years, but I know exactly.
