of mouth and flesh




Sweating sun 
scorches breath 
under the loom 
of a swelling cloud 
where wetness sizzles 
on cotton flesh 
   
eyes of red   
and violet hue 
cast the nail   
into her thigh 
plunges iron   
of passions will 
gripping thorns 
on rose torn cries 
   
echoes hunt   
mouth and skin 
pulled back from 
her heady call 
pushing down 
the scent she claims 
finding deep 
the ground below 
   
hands that hold her 
to the night 
now the burn 
has dropped from view 
shadows cast 
the dance they share 
across the bark 
of natures realm
