My dreams are glossaries of his charms and virtues
More than those things that Santa can bring.
The curl of his lips
their sweet flavor
and his molesting appreciations
If you feel sweet rhapsodies, are they imagined?
But just as the light of bright stars recede
and interstellar constellations wither
memories of dream-state passions fade.
Not that the spheres of their collateral radiance wilts -
in recounting those subconscious tempest smolderings
- we hold them tenderly in our favors.

thunder splits smoldering skies ~

Undressed poltergeists prowl around
a lurch occurring on the ground
people stoked the burning man's fire,
our souls, toasted by the sun's pyre
we twirl boldly, strong our hearts pound.
Fine if not
I did
It spoketh into mine own bloody ears
Mate
Bo
Blood E
Smoking timbers in the hatch
Touchdown
Says he
With the wise head
And the big ol balls
Jewish smile
Racist!
White well-meaning and poor taste of sense
Brilliant!
I heard it
The knuckled pause
The smoke and mirrors
I heard the tutelary
I looked up and grinned
With semen falling in volleys
Oh God
What has become
Of me
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 of fairy dust
Exuberant elegance abound
Dancing embers beneath our feet
Fairy dust enticing flames of heat
Unfolding timeless moments
To hold you with kindness,
warmth from my heart
Laughter and giggles with a little wiggle
Off to Macy’s and Bloomingdales, Cinderella went -
shoe sale! To fill her closet full
“Poof”
A little spark of dalliance bursts a humongous flame,
now it's white-hot passion growing too wild to tame

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

As Phoenix From Smoldering Ashes Rise
As Phoenix from smoldering ashes rise
truth burns away false tales in its wake
to birth dreams and glory in dawn's surprise
within slow cast fog Love's touch not forsake!
Yet sorrow may bless, clearer bells to ring
musical tunes holy angels sing.
As Phoenix calls to broken world gone mad
when new life in majestic rivers swell
gone were fantasies we dreamers once had
that wisdom bade us, not ever dare tell!
Yet sorrow may bless, clearer bells to ring
musical tunes holy angels sing.
As Phoenix soars in clouds of gold bright rays
memories race beyond that purple veil
nothing whispers softly and nothing stays
in that dying dust, all goes straight to hell!
Yet sorrow may bless, clearer bells to ring
musical tunes holy angels sing.
As Phoenix flight dares flying alone
calls crash from magnificent mountain peaks
reminding humans are mere flesh and bones
and tainted are vessels from which all speak!
Yet sorrow may bless, clearer bells to ring
musical tunes holy angels sing.

Rhyme, ( From Ash And Fiery Red Flame Rose A Mighty Beast )
Straddling the candle,
too close to the flame
A fiery benediction
—a smoldering refrain
(Grantham New Hampshire: February, 2017)
Straddling the candle,
too close to the flame
A fiery benediction
—a smoldering refrain
(Grantham New Hampshire: February, 2017)
A certain young filly has caught my fancy
I squirm and I jiggle, and I get all antsy
Won't mention her name
But my parts are aflame
All ga-ga over her smoldering chassis
Straddling the candle,
too close to the flame
A fiery benediction,
—a smoldering refrain
(Grantham New Hampshire: February, 2017)
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
upon an impeding raven's blighted sojourn
midway extravagances of destructive somber ruins,
obscurity's sulphurous gloom of unsung melodies
surrendered in silence 'midst dusky moonlit spirits
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 combust into flame
Orange heat pulsating from deep within
Her galloping passion wild and not tame
She rides fiery flares all through the night
Savage her need to combust into flame
The hunger in her eyes makes him ignite
She pulls him into her internal blaze
She rides fiery flares all through the night
His body kindling that lights in her gaze
She feels the need rising up from her core
She pulls him into the internal blaze
Insatiable, always in need of more
