Psoriasis
Your psoriasis
My constellation
I study nightly
A map of you
Exquisite dots
A trail to favorite places
Only I can see
A cunning line
Below your thigh
Cracked perfection
I study their path
Tracing the terrain
I know your shape
More than you do
And love it more
Than smoother parts
Across your spine
Ridged with true intention
Down the crevices in front
Driving me mad with suggestion
Tiptoeing
In tempting directions
Your explorer
Your steady traveler
Who lives to learn
Then revels in rediscovery
The spots that complete you
