too long your lips have stared
the body of my thoughts,
studying the patterns
and the features,
deciphering the blueprints,
my irrational being


...those petals,
their textures burning in the color,
popping out like embers, fed
every regulated breath


you are compelled
to lick away the dryness,
wipe the prints and traces,
put out the flames covertly...
but make it look casual:
you cannot be caught spying;
or the government of words
denies everything,
severing the strings,
abandoning its secret desire
behind enemy lines,
to be captured, questioned,
and tortured
by your very own
collaborationist conscience
