The Ashes of Desire
Your contributions are pennies in the well-
All your efforts, yet no ripple can be seen at all.
If you want a memory to hold,
then come and make one with me now.
Dance me beneath a sky of fire;
Lay me down on the ashes of desire.
Wind your fingers in my tangled hair,
lest this passion quickly be aborted.
Make your move with force; make it fast.
