I feel

The nerve ends shudder,
Tense with aspiration.
To feel something anew,
Someone soft, but less than what the mere equinox brings,
Creates less harmony.
Bathing, for a moment,
In cool sweat sitting upon the skin, feelers all of them,
Wait anxiously, hoping not for stings
Of pain or mirthless taps,
But for the deep sense of gain
That only another's touch
Can string together, pinch by tiny pinch
