Sticky Sweet Affection

"As the twig is bent, the tree inclines." ~ Virgil

choose warmth to follow
nourishment
an advantageous direction
give me rain to swallow
i am bent
towards sticky sweet affection

thoughts can cool desire
stumble in
mislead the smartest of the bunch
let's kindle the fire
with some gin
leave reason to follow a hunch

not looking for nothing
but a smile
need tears of laughter to free me
don't need prayers or a wing
for awhile
anyway, i just need to be
