Sunburn

The sun's flames lick my back and burn the outer crust; warm my hidden bones. I see the orange glow behind closed eyes, as the rays fall across my face and dance up and down my body. I want to lie naked, and spread eagled, so it can trickle between my legs and brown me inside and out. The sun is my lover, his passions burn like fire.
