moth's wings
April 24, 2010
jewel red,
blue,
green
butterflies – or
moth’s wings
unspoken
and unseen
Fire – Fire –
ring of fire
kissing flame and hot desire
hurry – hurry
wooden doll
dancing ’round the scene
ever closer to the blaze
never ceasing,
nor to faze
entrancing
with the scarlet stare
dancers of the starlit flare
kissing, licking, ever-burning
like the
clockwork
ever-turning
Fire – Fire –
ring of fire
kissing flame and hot desire
flutter, flutter
ash wings
hurry to the flame
only in its hot caress
does want begin to wane
