Leper Skin By Tony Pena

Once pitch black,
leggings sheer grey
from one too many
cycles in the cum
washing machine.
Still piqued, my palm
grazed your forbidden
hip like it did so many
times before but now
you flinch and snarl
as I have grown uglier
in the shadow of a young
Turk whose cock lasts
longer than my vow
of taking you to the healing
waters where the worst
of sins wash off our bodies.
I’ve done the math, though,
and it seems patience was not
your virtue at all as I’ve found  in
a long shower a gift from your lover
to remember him intimately as well.
