when I lay in bed
some nights
relaxing
I start to feel
the hands
reaching up
from under n
in my bed

sometimes
I get up n write
why I think the hands are there
what their purpose is

but
most nights
I let the hands
grab
n pull
n hold me
til I can find
a hand
to hold
that doesn't squeeze
my balls
too hard
