melted wax flows with serpentine alacrity
over and through my fingers,
stippling the perfect porcelain of your double lusciousness.
scarlet edged droplets sing of scalding enticements
your head thrown back
knuckles clenching velvet leopard
gasps of startled pleasure teased from your lips
your damned lips
reflecting in the dwindling candlelight…
the burning spreads to areas untouched by wax
and i jump all my fences -
blame the vodka
blame the senses inflamed by flame
blame your sighs
blame your thighs
blame your half-lidded eyes
blame the scent of your hair
blame your milky, soft skin
blame the hour
blame your powers
blame the shape i was in
blame the lure of forbidden bliss
blame the pixie thief you awaken in me
blame it all for my theft of a kiss
and the rewriting of original sin
