She feels the need rising up from her core
Ever waiting to burst into fire
Insatiable, always in need for more

Smoldering ember of her desire 
Orange heat pulsating from deep within
Ever waiting to burst into fire

No breeze can cool this, her hot searing skin
Savage her need to...

Our Smoldering Factory Town
Our Smoldering Factory Town
free trade, a brick around
It’s gurgling, swollen neck. Surrounding
gray quiet smolder, evokes, 
Once thriving factory smoke
A Crumbling horoscope
once paid it's worker's, soaked
in quiet desperation.
We are it's rusty antiques
sinking ships on outsourced seas
a swollen, bailout casualty
a fallow field, a dustbowl breeze
While children sew...

Eyes Smoldering
Drunk, and his eyes smoldering,
and that’s what she hated,
drinking and he became a monster alcohol created,
he rammed into her,
a string of spit,
after the hit,
stretched across his mouth,
then he struck her again,
he was a total disgrace,
backhanded her across the face,
she felt his rage and heat,
her knees...

Darkly Smoldering Allies
Darkness and I have become allies,

 affinity by association's shadowed prayer

     spoken of the same kindred language,

consanguinity in our devout appeal

  of blackening night's smoky exposure,

like a coke whore I obligingly snort it

doomed to partake in a dreadful flight

Frozen Smoldering Ashes
I think I just experienced first hand
Consciousness
Cradled in the bosom of epiphany 
Inspiration expunged from my fathers naval wake up call 
Calling all hands on deck make a break
My call to arms each day
Formative dream educed sleep filled eyes oh sound awake 
Was our lesson...

Smoldering Look
V enus arrives on shore graciously in a shell
E asily carried by breadth the sun gods expel
N ymphs greet her with a rich purple cloak
U ndulating roses their seed heads shook
S he covers her modesty with a smoldering look...

Rings of smoke drift out
                            from the chimney of my mind

Smoldering Heat
the candlelight in your eyes
quickens my breath
excites me, invites me
to taste your sweet lips

your smoldering heat
lights a flaming fire in me
that only your embrace
can quench

two hearts 
coming together
for a hot moment
beating as one

A Smoldering Refrain
Straddling the candle,
  too close to the flame

A fiery benediction,
 —a smoldering refrain

Smoldering
Women contaminating unborn children
With killer lungs
Slowly became our unwanted deceptive profit
And yet will clearly continue...

A little spark of dalliance bursts a humongous flame,

         now it's white-hot passion growing too wild to tame

Smoldering Pasts
My, heart pours out to my Love 
A love of today, 
Helping to close the books of yesteryear 
Bad loves, heart ripping past 
Watching my heart break in the worst way 
Now a Prince on a White Stallion has come for this broken soul

One clocked...

A Soul Smoldering With Sympathy
A SOUL SMOTHRED IN SYMPATHY 

I need you like a rose needs rain
I need you like I need life sustaining air
I need you for my garden is now in pain
My garden and I, one mournful pair

Drip drip 
Drip on lips that lie
Drip drip
Drip from eyes...

Cinderella
A smile that sweeps across your face like a shooting star -
Bathed in a cosmic storm of beauty, with hair of gold
Sparkling eyes, skin as white as the Moonlight glow  
With sultry lips, painted in red -
ready to lean in 
Dressed in a gown...
