Scent of Rain
I breathe her scent
deep earthy smell
of sprinkling rain
ozone of her essence
the scent of
freshly washed laundry
exotic fibers of lust
erotic murmur of nature
a silent opaque mist
steaming on naked skin
scent of blue condensation
liquid sunshine of her soul
aphrodisiac aroma
of gentle rain
ozone of the gods
showers stirring
my aroused senses
dancing with me
in simplicity of time
wafting perfume
of last night’s ardor
incense of her soul.
My Earth
You dance with tears of joy in your eyes,
Earth blooming.
Earth blossoming to your heartbeat.
Can you hear me cry?
Electrifying beauty, crafted from a heaven beyond the distant stars.
My home,
From the ashes of time to the cracking wake of dawn, you have only started to unveil your colors to me...
Guhsing waterfalls full of life,
Temptious winds, take me flight,
Cold Moonlight, lit my summer night
Harmoniuous unison,
Tapping resevoir, plentiful treasure
Mi tierra como te amo
Translation to English: My Earth how I love you.
The Rain Went Away For Awhile
remember that day,
not so long ago,
but not the present,
where we stood in the rain,
we were both hurt,
tears flowed like the raindrops soaking our outfits,
then the sun shined upon us,
our lips locked,
the earth smelled a bit more like what it once was before we were here,
fresh and new,
a little more wholesome than the usual days,
we weren't you and i,
we were us again
- i wish the storm could be over, i need more days like these
Long Walk Off a Short Ledge
I flung the window open, letting in a cool breeze. The sky was purple and the thick umami air draped around everything in my room. A warm breeze dragged its palm along the hem of my skirt before lifting it up and dragging its fingers up my thighs. I bit my lip and stepped out on the ledge. The silhouettes of the city were snoring and sleepy cars flitted along the winding highway. Horns were honking. Neighbors were moaning. The cat that lives in the shadows around my apartment mewed painfully, hoping for stupid humans to feed her. I'd almost miss being a stupid human. I stepped out. The rush of the heavy air gagged my nose and mouth. I could't scream. I wasn't going to anyway. I wanted to leave with no trace. No notes. No tears. No goodbyes. Just a long-forgotten stain on the pavement that the warm rain can never quite get rid off.
