Lazuli
Okay I have 6 minutes to write a poem
I’ve been drinking
and truth be told I’m not entirely done.
Unfortunately,
your distance makes me feel warmer
as if the way you reciprocate
every other moon
brings more brightness
to the skies claimed
under your name.
The way you bury yourself
rather than leave me to appreciate
the nuance of air
renders all wandersome thoughts
shovels, built into my wrists
the pulse of me
calling to your subsurface
frequency.
Erupt
that I might again
say, “hello,
how is your morning
and, beyond carving
lapis out of clouds,
how might I better
the stride of your soaring?”

Sunberry Touch
Embers fall from your eyes
as you blink away the shy flames
of our centered gaze.
Base intentions rise
quelled only by inner fountains
set to sprinkle on Saturday–
noon time, splintered sun tans,
tentative rays.
Campfire veins fail to cool
even as summers come to close.
Ample airings of argent hues
clenched, bark worn toes.
Speak with lips softened
by separate encounters
each time,
a step closer
to our shared heat.
Dancing tongues only know
so many steps.
We grew feet for a reason.
Remember the first time
the sun claimed your flesh as its own?
I fear the same of our first touch.
Burn me, afternoon lover
with the sunberry juice
of your blue sky brush.
