receive

a cup of expectancy 
a wrinkled shirt
creases folded into creases

these are my hands

empty wanting
worn and waiting

will you fill this cup
with what i need

will its taste suit my palate
satisfy my thirst
or does that even matter

a cup of expectancy
palm upon palm
skin folded into skin

these are my hands

soft and gentle
warm and tender
open to receive
you
