kissing keeps us afloat by Laurie MacFayden

By Laurie MacFayden

Kissing retains Us Afloat poems pulse with swaggering heroines and speedy makeout autos; crimson crayons and irresistable crimson lipstick. Uncontainable crushes and perceived infidelities play out in inn rooms, on seashores, in motorboats and at kitchen tables. Kissing retains Us Afloat celebrates uncooked wish, at the same time it reminds us we're on the mercy of the tides no matter if it is the thrill of uncharted waters or secure harbours that we seek.
