DREAMS

Dreams of you 
Alive under my skin 
They slither like a snake 
And spread like a sin 
Flowing flaming lava 
I'm melting within. 

Masses 
Of hot heavy fluids 
Slowly merging 
In a dried out crunchy shell 
They live red 
Wanton beads a sweating. 

Dehydration.
I drink from your well
And scald some more 
Browning at the edge. 

Ignition point. 
Then sudden rain. 
Freezing. Hurting. Healing. 
Hypothermic. 
I flutter madly 
A bird 
Caged behind a glass wall 
Karmic. 

The mercury rises. 
Sweat begins to pour. 
Melting periphery. 
Boiling core. 
Pleasure courting pain. 
The inevitable full circle. 
I dream again.....
