Momentary Respite

I’m not really sure what to say about this little poem, except that it’s grown on me with the passage of time. I like the simplicity of the words painting the scene - especially “Speak only with your hands .. let fingers serve her soul’s demands”. And then there’s the surprise twist at the end, which transforms the sense of the whole piece.
