Lava Love

When our volcano erupts Love-like lava Lava-like love Has begun to flood Lipstick kisses, our hot river Hug quakes Thighs sigh, thrust, quiver Our fountain will always shower, deliver Zeus commanded Venus, And placed us on a blue Zenith Atop our own mound, Not a living shadow around Undiscovered map, Completely oblivious If we get lost, in my pocket, I have a compass The moon is in its' gibbous Then the rainbow market of flowers Darkened down beneath Turned themselves green ugly Wind began to curse and cuss There will be no dividing or conquering us Legs, like roots Arms, wrapped and suction like the octopus The closest star to this globe, rose So far yet so close Fought against the waves Victorious again, against our atmosphere Peeked along the equator As it did for the Pagans and Romans Ancient times and now.......... Two thousand sixteen years later I place it in your palm my lava lover We'll scale back up our volcano When the sun climbs down for its' slumber Bathe in our lava love forever
