The Lesser
He’s worse than a placebo
genetically enhanced to
make my heart race,
make adrenalin rush;
engrave feelings so
Raw
I can’t breathe.
In one slight stroke
all privy revealed

In one heart-wrenching movement
exhilaration overtakes all feeling.
The air would feel stuffy,
entwined in soft threads of intensity,
