prisms in your palms (a sonnet)
By hate_doll
Apparitions only seen in sepia dreams
Manifest in between the creases of your palm
Neon-headed angels seducing in hues of saffron and creams
The senses linger on a moment too long
Sheparded by the sharp thrill of a heartbeat quickened
Restless and wild they dance in the folds of flesh
Racing themselves to a quick end
A smile graces the landscape and overshadows the rest
Quixotic toxins shot thru a crystal hourglass
Illuminating the angels naked, phosphorescent
Iridescent breasts and eyes a sorceress would possess
Fingers hung by twilight and moon crescents
These specters controlled by your distraction
Otherwise known as the muses of your passion

an incredible menagerie of flowing images and vivid sensuality, blended together in such a form it leaves a linger dust of colourific fire...intense and serene, simultaneously.
