the moon
glows
dim and anemic; my eyes
are flickering like goldfish, pupils
swimming furiously from side to side
in their love-drunk orbs, and BAM! some crazy star
has hit me with a white-hot beam
of energy, its gleaming nervous rhythms rushing through
my capillaries like quicksilver from a celestial syringe -
white cakey crystalline adrenaline, the bitter sunrise of my
mind, i feel the joy (i feel it i feel it yeah!)
welling up inside me, swirls and fits and thrumming
undercurrents of ecstasy, my heart like a hummingbird, system
heating up up up comes the water from turbulent depths of my gut -
little hiccups of nausea, can't keep it all down; softness
delectable to my electrified touch
so i might be lost, feather-smothered, drowned in an ocean of pillows
a phalanx of sun-streaked wings, everything about me wide open
and shining, unconscious of my aggravated jaw, grinding
out its bone-white symphony
beneath the pure and astonished
love i feel for all.
