Drip, Drop

Drip Drop Water drop cascades under sapphire afterglow Undoing 4 month deprivations Muffled moans surround crimson fireplace Crackling of fire Thrusts of skin Retinal vibrations shutter her pilot light deep within She ascended to blue moon heights As embers of his inferno Bow in collective unison Maddening grips His fingertips draw triangular markings Hugging curvature’s hip Gentle bites on lower lip He tackles her wanton hands against waterbed foundations Her strengthened pupils reach out for 3rd eye clarity. She asks for his dance under aggressive whisper As he dips Inside Slow motion Salsa bends of her will She crosses legs marking “X” against his spot His relinquished hands Slalom her vocal chords toward accentuated heavens He exorcised her trembling inner thighs From collapsing octaves With eloquent, muted exhales His hand reaches her cheek His mouth descending towards her breast “My lady, put that lighter down, Let me be your cigarette.” Drip Drop ©11/19/2013 A Scorcher for Charlotte's contest.
