WHEN HER DESIRES FRIGHTEN HER, AND OTHER POEMS BY DONOVAN BALDWIN, AUGUST 7, 2024

she sometimes must hide

when her desires frighten her

then he brings her home


-----


controls your body

holds your hands above your head

you accept his gift


-----


she floats in poems

a penetration of words

find their way inside


-----


bare shoulders to me

lips and fingers on your neck

kisses at your throat


------


take time for beauty

not all poems come from pain


By Donovan Baldwin
