"Sacred Fire" ~ Austin, Texas

© 2015 Skip Hunt

Enveloped in the sanctity of truth...

...she met the venomous darkness...

and wrapt the unspoken evil within her...

sacred fire.

~~~

...honey drip down and suckle my soul...

...take me into your fiery fold...

...and mould my stony pain...

...into your liquid ecstasy.

~~~

~it tingled at first... a curious twinge before the pain... and then the burn felt slick and cold... then thickened into something I hadn't quite bargained for.

I writhed for a bit until I could take no more. Her secrets would have to remain unknown for now. I was weak...

Almost free from her torrid grip, and back into the icy night... she thrust her searing arm toward mine.

I wanted to save myself, but was seduced by her enchanting ardor~

~~~

~the struggle had long since subsided... when I found myself entwined... slipping and falling... rising... floating within her fervid touch.

Shifted from material to passionate blaze... I felt the moment when I became we... and never missed losing my self... 

Only to be forever burning eternally as one~

~~~

~as we danced her velvet sweltering flushed me so... 

I forgot about my self, soul, and sanity... 

Her searing beguilement became my loving mantra~

~~~

~pulled back and floated stunned in the charcoal void... intoxicated by the stench of fuel and infatuation.

Where was I? And where had I been?

The residual flame licked and tickled my lascivious longing until I drifted back into the wood to love her from afar~

"Sleep" ~ Jacksonville, Florida 1988

A soft twilight breezes kissed her wanting skin as she dreamt of faraway shores.

The sea’s salted arid cuisine made her hunger for spices and delicacies unknown....

Somewhere lost in a dream.
