Enshrine my martini glass one
more time
With your crystalline goodness,
please.
Encrust my tongue with the taste
of
Accidental sweat and no warning.
Woe is the sodium’s power slowing
My blood and curing my heart.
Salty desires do not stop so
easily.
They arise like old loves and
lamentations
Over ramen, chips, and pickles.
Envelop me in your purging powers
So I may be not so toxic.
Entice my eyes with what will be
My white demise.
NaCl, I am your mineralogist lover.
Despite dehydration,
I will entertain every
perspiration flavor,
Every cum-soaked skin,
Every tear stream,
And revel in every grain.
