Lifelines

(Heart-throb Blues)

Don’t push, don’t force it
Let it happen naturally
Say, don’t push, don’t force it
Let it happen naturally*
Just move, just slide it
Let it rub maximally

I’m a closed book
Between two dark covers
Say, I’m a closed book
Between two dark covers
Leaf through my pages
With the littlest of jitters

A silent volcano
I rumble below the crust
Yes, silent volcano
I rumble below the crust
Between a sizzling peace
And a bold, untempered thrust

A quiet nod
A winsome wink
Say, a quiet nod
And a winsome wink
The real Deep Song
Not a facile fling

Touch me light
Unbottle my juice
Say, touch me light
Unbottle my juice
Bend me divine
To your wondrous use

*Lines from a song by the American group Urban Bush Women
