Conflagration doused
In an
Exquisite cacophony of aches
I wake
Ethereal reminisces
Running abstract through my psyche
I smile
Sweet Luna
Had lain witness to the battle
Picking sides
Twin flames
Of our conjoined fires danced under
Indigo skies
Dragon shelved
You sleep the sleep of the just
Of angels
El Sol
In spangling coda, makes nimbus of
Your hair
But I
I know the beast is still inside and
You stir
Gently unfolding
The origami of our limbs
You wake
And blink
The ferment in my eyes your only warning
You smile
I inhale
And watch as sparks shimmy anew in your eyes
Then exhale
Flame on!
