the softest spot

The coldest spot is always between the thighs
Right in the middle of that little patch of skin on either side that rub against each other,
buff each other - creating the softest spot

Or so the first boy to touch there said.
Skin; we abuse it, take it for granted, want to disown it
So someone else had to call attention to it
Shine it in a subtle, seductive light

Imagine it white with the whitest of flesh
Punctuated with a freckle
Imagine the incomparable velvet, the dough
Because it's true - it is the softest, bestest part
The whipped cream on top, underneath, and in between
