A reflection on aesthetic attraction from an aspec (aromantic-asexual spectrum) lens.
The shop’s lights
Intrude on my
Soliloquy to
Evergreen shadows, its
Mannequins marionettes
Reanimating desire
Sensually exposing
Ceramics that
Petrify me with
Beauty, bodily
Cacophony congealing
Orgasmic overture
Crescendo coming -
Apart, afterglow
Flowing. Full, I
Watch without
Hunger, hopeful for
Entrancing encore.
For more on how to live life through an aspec lens, see the book Sounds Fake But Okay (Sarah Costello and Kayla Kaszyca 2023) or the podcast by the same name.
