Tongue Kiss a Stranger

Have you ever tongue kissed a stranger?
parted your lips
and gently slipped private letters
into their subconscious
to where they can't be reached without a key.
have you stolen a staccato breath
so that they know
how it feels when you're running on a sentence
and you don't want it to end,
mess up the rhythm,
or you simply can't remember
what you wrote after aaannnnddd...
have you painted their mouth with your pen.
drew hieroglyphics on their cheeks
to be discovered by the next memory;
noted that they taste like
strawberry preserves without the seeds.
I do this regularly
tongue kiss strangers
and with a mic and a stand I might
kiss you too.
c'mon, it's just a little wordplay
