The moon sweat tonight...
liquid droplets of iced fire
quenching my torrid flesh
a sizzling sting of relief
to my dimpled lips


The sun shook its fist
Hidden beneath the cast of night
blazing brightly in another part of the world
jealous that it couldn't view
the torrents of true passion


Oceans parted for a moment to gasp
millions of forgotten creatures
holding their breath patiently..
whirlpools seducing their mermaids
a coiling dance of enchantment


The winds courted momentum,
a piercing howl of freedom
buckling the knees of rooted seed
demolishing all that was secured
to defy the speed limit of sanity

mother earth split wide
her razored maw to receive
The gift of sacrificial lust...
legions of venemous pleasures
riding the soiled backs of rooted vine

Time defied the smile of light
one single minute, grabbed its broken mask
a masquerade ball of exhalted endurance
each second, to seem either fleeting
or a precious keepsake....an infinite fossill



The forces of nature, melding to the perfect consistency

my breath caught .....quickened..
The moment you kissed my face..

.....something about the kiss....solidifies the moment in a lifetime......some kind of undiscovered physics maybe....

I'm so glad that Marek commented on this tonight, otherwise I might never have found it. This is exquisite. So delicate and whispered but so powerful as well. Perfectly chosen words and rhythm. Amazingly done. *favs* -Glass

One word .... BREATHLESS ... i felt unique as you permitted me to witness the majestic beauty of the earth collide with the perfect innocence of a first kiss, leaving me breathless in every way.

Wow. This blew me away. Your words here are beautiful beyond belief. I wish I could go through and point out every piece I liked, but 256 is not enough. This is poetic art, beautiful.
