Nirvana
Damn look at you.
As cold and moist as sin
Baby, you’ll be the death of me.
Murder it.
You’re as close as you’ll ever be.
You’re a butter knife and youre the toasted bread
Warm
Dark
And Im spread across you like strawberry jam
Melting and cool
Natural, sticking together
Fresh, wet
Ripe, crisp, and drenched.
And you said you couldnt dance.
Deeper, slower, soft served
With no bended knee to recompense.
We?re a summer breeze
Drifting and lingering for as long as we please.
Now stop,
Breathe
First hard and then not,
Easy
Cause easy does it, haste makes waste.
Crushed ice,
Churnin cherry lime-aid
Brain freeze, body heat
East meets west and cold meets and hot greets
A mixture
Gods wrath powerful and sweet like a
Cinnamon tornado begets between us
And wraps around us imitating us in movement and twists and turns
And demeanor.
And then the calm
After
The storm.
Damn look at me.
As hot and bitter as coffee and cream
As deadly and moist as sin.
Sugar, I’ll be the life of you. Enlighten yourself.
You’re a Buddhist, baby,
Here I am Zen.
