No Dragons

It’s you by the stream only you among the trees nature in and around you is a lovely thing as you walk to the lodge and your smile is welcoming inviting. A kiss on your neck where you like and I learn how the combing of that endless river of hair with deep devotion is hypnotic oh the smell of you! We groove to R.E.M. and tell God we’re good because we are good there is serenity and I feel it all around us and tension sexual need your dress keeps secrets perfectly so there are mysteries to solve and promises to keep. There are oranges for you standing out of respect for your ingenuity waiting for your delicious lips waiting for your methodology for your insane loveliness and there are candies too my sweet red orange (which are not here but there for you) blue green yellow brown. You talk in tongues to me captivate me as Raya lies rests in repose a scene so surreal so Dali groans painting as you go colors of your essence pervade. No karma due here no elephants in this room mountains are climbed and conquered passions meted out no there is nothing but you and me we and us and a bug I named Caligula no dragons to slay this day.

very cool. kind of reminds me of my Barefoot in the Bushfires of the Vanities. I like this one you've written here very much. Draws the reader in, as if they are your protagonist (either one) in the ethereal setting....but one still senses (although you say no dragons here), dragons hidden or invisible prowling the edges of the forest still looking in to the clearing towards the cabin.
