Longing For The Flame
by Nights
his face is a miasma
of innocence and slyness
made into flesh: a bait perhaps
to tame my arid fancies
that often probe and dredge
amongst the fog of my thoughts---
but now my world is a maze
where I trudge aimlessly
reaching for the tangency
of his touch only to reach
for none.
i sigh as fractions of his warmth elude
my grasp, and later clot in the nameless
corners of my mind...
I sculpt his image on my breakfast egg
and beg the gods to send me power
to forget my angst;
while I bask longingly in the meadow
of his soul like the slow residing of butterflies---
remnants of last night's fantasy
of him and I being one.
