Your kiss is a maddening,
a god’s voice, a rage against my
skin that makes me senseless to my sense
of where I end and where I, rough, begin.
It is an interesting experiment. As a poem many might find it a little boring as it doesn't really say anything new or original. I think good modern poems about kissing need to dwell in the intamacy and sensuous rather than hyperbole. (Your kiss is a god's voice actually makes me laugh, it reads a little pubescent).
Thanks for posting.
