My
paws crack the icy crags,
Ascending
along asymmetric stones
To
cold canyons and cliffs
Where
your scent warms my blood.
I
tip-toe with tension and torrid
Senses,
beyond your little ears —
Those
rounded echoes of unawares,
Like
the sun-fired plains I've not known.
You
are magnificent to my low stature,
My
stare embeds in the trace of your lines
And
ages as untouched glass,
As
my breath burns the night.
I
hunt the ibex, through twilight
On
the higher spires of Bhutan,
Though
I crave not their flesh,
Nor
sustenance for my flex.
I
pass my narrow moments,
Forgetting
my own footprints
While
I trek alone,
Contemplating
the flavors of your skin.
My
mind is a winter azul with
Mantle-centered
flame,
And
my days, not perplexed
By
trivialities of survival.
I
want your cheeks,
Their
uprisings and plateaus,
The
black-rock lava
Of
your onyx eyes.
I
creep under the moon,
Desiring
blankets of blind fragrance,
Swaying
and catching,
With
furious feel of the frosted soil.
And
I carve each step down
In
soft silent stealth,
Through
dark furrows and hills,
Toward the drum of your pulse.
