Aftermath

by Johann - Aries

The love scene is stilled:
A quiet crumpled rumpus,
An ethereal tableaux
Rich with touching breath;
Threaded limbs.
A brewing cohesion.
Tossed with dog ends,
Empty tea cups,
And spent white mops.
Crushed pillows; moulds of love knots
Declare passion’s vent;
Came and went, yet lingers
In you finger marks
And the kiss of you water glass.
The window flung
Churns old for new
Inhaling wanton scents
And painting desire’s plum hue
In fresh mint.
