Knowing my place

Know your place
She said
Her words
Tied me to my bed

Like ropes of thought
They keep me:
Pinned
***
Cared for
Longing
And warm.

Know?
This my knowing
This my new
This my now
I cleave to this knowing
Like a baby to the breast
No separation from my self
What she says is best

My?
This word is in the center
This word is how I got here
I spoke out of turn
Asserted my
Proved I don’t know
my place

Because I think my words matter
Because I had to share them

The mine is nothing compared to hers
I am nothing compared to her
Letting my my be nothing
Letting my my be hers

Place?
Place isn’t a place at all
Place is a frame of mind
Under
Behind
Beside
Serving
Receiving
Always relative to her
The shadow of her light
The after to her party
The factoid to her truth

Under her body
Under her gaze
Under her hand

Only beautiful because she sees my beauty
Only pleasurable because she makes pleasure of me

Know my place!

When she had me
She turned my skin to silk
Her touch set my hands aflame
My breath crackled electric
When she had me

That place she took me
So beautiful
So warm
So light
So power filled

I’m happier just remembering
Happy to have seen anew
Happiest for her lips

I’ll keep my place
I’ll treasure her power
For the heart pounding
For the hope of more of her
