ginseng and jasmine
anew love come mine.
cardinal caress
press frightens.
cedar and sandalwood
lovers cede skin.
burnt breath's tide
speeds and heightens.
plum and lavender
throat slave tongue.
‘neath palm, butterfly
stomach tightens.
apricot and alabaster
earlobe teeth twixt.
pulse drumming rasp
soar seed lightens.
crash and cascade
hands crumble lie.
conveyed choices
terminus brightens.
undersea,
speech trips,
over and
in.
mint and tea,
broken lips,
out and then
in.
liberty,
eyes eclipse,
over and
in.
salt and sea,
breath ellipse,
out and then
in.
