I arouse
It's a ruse
It's a ruse

upholding beauty until it's too much to bear
our flowers melt
for simply having to be there

SPLAT

splayed limbs
limber in bed
your bedroom eyes-eyeing me down
i'm lying
you down

drown

purple plum skies silver slithering clouds clementine climbs
on the horizon

heating our hurried hearts

touch turns blue
thoughts burn into you
the seeping sleepiness always comes through

a view from without
means release from within
