a song for the sun
by M. F. Sullivan
what lion lies,
o king of flame
upon your golden crown?
a diadem
of porcelain fangs
arrayed with peacock's down.
slip thy nimble
fingers there
beneath my lunar gown
that quickened silver
they'll ignite
and in its flames i'll drown.
Kinda Dickinsonian
Diadem and the antique syntax and diction coalesce. Nice.
Gorgeous word choice.
The most exquisitely erotic experience I've enjoyed all day, thus far. *
I like this very much.
