The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

scattering ash

uteric fire rises glowing across
  sacral waters, delivering
    umbilical vibrational luminosity
                                    to crown —-

I am Phoenix from Golden Sun
  arriving black vulture feathered 
    scattering ash you lovingly
                                      sowed …

crimson mirrors my pupils
  pierce each cell
    penetrating what is to 
      transmute as Rubicon awaits not 
          rabid roaring apricot black ____

veined breasts exude milk 
                        for next 
                                    i l l u s i o n ~
