Those lips aren’t thin
They are bursting with words
Beestung with sweet nectar
Your lipbalm is royal jelly
Those lips spit verses
As frequently as sailors fling curses
Those lips aren’t thin
They taste the earth
Kiss love’s wounds
Brush countless courtiers with
Benedictions
Those lips conspire and inspire
Fulsomely
Those lips are thick with poetry’s delights
Those lips aren’t thin
They’re just right
