Erotomania

Dragon rising…
Intuition of beautiful murders,
The pomegranate earth dehisces,
Spilling a myriad seeds.
The black honeycomb
Oozes sweetness.
Flammable self
Swills volatile liquors
Distilled from spring rain
In alchemic conduits.

Floating in vestments of purple and gold,
I spy through holes in palace walls,
Vanish down secret passages.
Absorbed in mythic gourmandise,
I flirt with perfect objects in the mind.
The cat’s eye mesmerizes me
In my midnight vigils.

Sacred epilepsy:
The sacrifice to emptiness
In a shudder of time.

Unmask the masker,
Disrobe the teasing world.
Here, take this smile,
Whose horns will gore you.
