Unaware

Your eyes a dark archipelago Mysterious then exotic across my seas; I perceive their warmth inviting While those lips blow a tangy flavour- Irresistible, poised to reach for a kiss Brewed by the fire of summer’s heat… Carefully, my head examines the prospects Between reason and wantonness, As the fluid air spins amorously And the evening grows too blind, untamed- I forget what happens next except, I was Drunk with the melody of something spontaneous. The Crap Shoot Contest May 4, 2019

"Carefully, my head examines the prospects Between reason and wantonness," I had to smile at this one, as once the heart decides what the heart wants, the mind is "out the window". The ending line confirms it!
