This morning
was a port wine stain
the sun in roil
Waterford
and there were prints
of hungry lips
in coral on the brim.

They told stories
inbetween
of lines that never
should have been
like ladies eager
for too much
blotting
lust in riverbeds
of all the lies of
the eclipse
that dread
their eagerness for fill

hungry

for the whisp of scent
bending necks
inviting

--itch -

laughing as she bled her bliss

pupils

darklings

in dilate--

satiated; dead.

I get the biggest kick out of the replies you always get.  Heck, I just see a sunrise, and wondered what time it was?

Can I play too? *laughing*

I was just picturing the morning ritual of a lady I used to know--whatever bled through the lines is just fine too.

("She" is no longer with me anymore, and that is a very good thing. )

Thanks so much for reading, with love to all.
