    Every kilowatt counts in the transmittance
    Of this kismet charge between us
    Powering centuries of longing across hearts
    Blacked out by intermittent chance encounters

    Indulgent letters crammed close together
    Sentences ripe and luscious with intent
    I leave all the lights on in between my imperceptible phrases
    So you can illuminate the spaces where I take a breath

    Slowing my heart rate down inside a light-bulb daydream
    Where you electrocute the backs of my eyelids with one lucid glance
    Asleep in the pages of a well-thumbed thesaurus alongside a self-diagnosis
    Euphemistic explanations standing in for the truth once again

    Waiting for you to slide down the residual current of sparks into my bed
    Where I wrap you in an electric blanket full of embers and linguistic overlap
    My particles are very particular when it comes to your molecular structure, lover
    So beautifully held together with sporadic dialect and poetry sticky tape
