Meet and Greet


He shook my hand with a gentle force
like he'd be in charge if we were together
and his sweaty palm moved me
His brown, moist skin tickled those special pressure points
and, oh, how beautiful his hand looked as I held it in mine!
I guess I should have wiped myself clean after
No one likes a sweaty palm, right?
But I couldn't
I didn't want to lose such a personal thing
Something that came from within him
So, instead, I made a fist,
held that mist inside
and prayed
his sweat my holy water
for more opportunities to be touched by him
and his brave wet hand.
