Exterminating Angels

Selfish love is a cheating love,

so prevalent in these troubling times.

Sad to see the lack of true ecstasy.

Cheated for loss of feeling the feel

of fullness reached on another’s part

Seeing, feeling, hearing the gasps

escaping with feverish vigor.  Touching

here, caressing there, the warmth

of love renewed in physical song.
