I’ve imagined obtrusions

within the scope of my dreams

mapped with overtones

of virtuous engorged conception

through some threaded gown

of whispering wandering nightfall

spanning across a timeless terrain

with a tumescence defined

by shadowed lithe curves.

The taut complexion of years

begins to fade as histories

– drenched, restless, and stained –

releases with each pulsing petal

and leaves drift gracefully

from the superb silken skin

of your soiled summer dress.

One thousand years waiting

for the luxury of a moment’s smile.
