impossible to hide how I spark heat

Posted on July 23, 2012 by Susan L Daniels

impossible to hide
how I spark heat

in blushes

lit harder than morning sun
slaps glass
my skin the window

and that beam
can burn

prismed fingers
tickling fire
from dry grass/my spirit

ignition

About Susan L Daniels

I am a firm believer that politics are personal, that faith is expressed through action, and that life is something that must be loved and lived authentically--or why bother with any of it?

    Such sweet passion. Not quite innocent. Nor should it be.

      Thank you, George. Yes, sweet. Definitely not innocent. Or at the very least one should know not to play with fire, unless very carefully 🙂

      I so enjoy the way you word things.
