A Kiss is still...an osculatory apposition of the orbicularis oris and levator labii muscles with posterior involvement of the sternocleidomastoids, commonly in a dexterous orientation.

Dreams Of A Kiss
I saw in two dreams...
The first, like that of friends,
merely a meeting of lips.
Even an accident, maybe..?
A gentle touching, nothing more.
The second, a dance of tongues,
sucking and thrusting in bold
undulations of unorchestrated passions—
decelerating into a slow, moist samba.
Each dream, so much more than a kiss.
Each kiss, I pray, more than its dream.
