Saline Steam

Lee Cataldi gives us a Sapphic moment in the lyric “tears” — and by Sapphic we mean not only the content but also the manner…

warmer on my thighs
your tears

the smoldering is from Out of the Box: Contemporary Australian Gay and Lesbian Poets edited by Michael Farrell and Jill Jones.
