I have thought:

About my fingers as a dune buggy race on the endless sands of your back. Or as submarines descending through the uncharted depths of your hair to your very top’s very bottom.

About the Mark Leidner line, “Love castrates ambition / and I’m so stupid I’d rather be great than happy.”
