A Liquid Grave

(4 ratings)
by Alex Holly Ander

Up from my bed,
through the house
out the door, and down the drive pass.
The morning's breath is warm,
snug
as it breathes kisses to my buzzing head.
From the distance her temptress song pulls me
down
and closer to her side.
She spreads before me,
wet and trembling.
"Indulge in me." She beckons my welcome.
"Let us drink of each other."
How delicious she writhes in quite surrender.
Twitch sung she speak it!
"Let me cleanse you with my love
cover you deep
in prison,
in secret."
She ripples in dangerous delight
as her shackles glimmer
softly
in the coming of the murky light.
And He bends His head through the pillowy clouds
and gently bathes me with His tears;
an act
to show regret, for being vacant all these years....
..but alas....
..........SPLASH!
