You Are Insinuating...

Nows [no. 3]

You are insinuating yourself
into my reluctant life
and teasing me toward a grin.

But we have an agreement,
you and I.

If you will squeeze my hand
I will coat your body with oil.

When you sing in my ear
I will kiss your eyelids.

And if you will hear my tears
I will surround you with hugs
that ask no more than
to be allowed a brief dance
to the rhythmic dance
of your joy.
