[ Lovers Are Burning ]

by @third-eye-candy

lovers are burning.] balsamic nudity gallops from shame into the overwild wetness of labial volcanoes, caramelized in musk. by love's labor. laid bare, their bodies origami inhibition...[ lovers are burning. ] and surrender is victorious ! Eros is speechless. maidens howl into cumulus goose-down, chewing carnal haikus with swayed backs.... hips wide and wanton. masculine wands plow oyster beds, unmade. they joust pearls... and [ lovers are burning ] .... a damp conflagration; tongue stoked and windswept, conspires. monotony is slain ! puritan harps are plucked and thrummed ! lewd harmonies anoint the perfect pitch and a chorus moans. the ghost of sylvia plath, straddles Apollo; and he earns his wreath surging besotted. [ lovers are burning ] and laurels forgotten. lotharios charge the seldom road; the starfish door to Saturn's parlor. pumping unbridled, that glistening, cloven moon. her riding crop insists ! his urgency must do. satyrs sup salaciously and summon staves to dip in brine. they grin and grind their sutras, stripping karma gears with silk scarves. ankles to a post, well spread... cushions crush. flowers press... stamen fed. nymphs clutch their serpent stones to drain what nectar slips the slit. they grope and throat. they peck and pinch their quivers; knock their arrows to the purpose, half spent. [ lovers are burning ] eyes ablaze. nostrils fetch randy fumes of consent. mouths seek. a pouty swamp with Spanish moss.... finds a matador and a bull, a china shop. lovers are burning the rough sketch of a lost god and their angels are voyeurs with unclean thoughts for gospels.
