she drinks his skin
like taking a pill
fickle
glisten of the fakediamond
earrings she wore so long ago
cast light like prisms alluring
lulls her into the stucco walls
a cloaking of the end
of the rainbow
but ethereal vapors condensing into
swimming thoughts of
spring
only a dusty filament
and crackling leaves
and the day fades to ice
but now as she contorts
to the breadth of his shoulders
the duplicity of existance
sinks beneath the sea
but if those fakediamonds
could splice time
would it sting as peroxide on a cut
or burgeon a universe
that flits about the dreams
like a siren lure
only
in ultraviolet will she see desire
forgotten
but lingering about her like an aura
she tries to rekindle
the northern lights
just to see
and then he mends her retinas
with a band-aid and a
kiss
