Beauty Observed

Fire fills the veins and clouds the eyes; 

heat fills my mind at the mention of your name 

only surpassed by the heavenly drowning in your eyes. 


Throw away the key and let me fall endlessly..., 

no djinn could cast a greater spell 

the thoughts of you crowd in the head 

all the imagined personas driving the craving only deeper. 


I would have walked on the sun with you, 

touched its warmth as it spread out filling the lungs, 

breathing honey with each night 

consumed in each other, endlessly. 


Real passion only multiplies, 

a mitosis that fills first the chest then bursting outward. 


The largest fire first started with just a spark, 

your palpable on the tongue, 

a face to launch a 1000 ships 

where craven thoughts are held at bay 

looking only for the willing partner. 


Unchecked desire 

to have your cake and eat it to, 

to feed on that sweet soft nectar 

drawing life from barren ground. 


Gasping for air 

waiting for each word and shutter in their absence, 

a sweet supple intelligence 

a tree who’s fruit I could gorge myself on relentlessly. 

Its sticky and gets beneath the fingers and seeps into the pores, 

echoing into the very depths, 

a hurricane to rattle the windows and board the doors. 


Moving at the speed of thought, 

releasing the restraints of the day, 

letting the hidden wants slip out into the page’s endless night. 


One-way streets are always lonely, long, and 

better to walk alone if not walking next to destiny. 


The hard fall coming down from a sugar high to the impact of reality, 

the thrill of the chase is only reality if capture is the intended destination and 

two souls forged into one its goal.
