If I am Venus, born from bloodshed,
risen up to ideal beauty
sexualized under man's tongue,
and you are Mars,
threading fire between your palms;
idealized in man's image,
then we are one: in the deepest crevices
of my porcelain skin,
you find your way with heat and flame
though my fragility is constant.

This is a very powerful and sensual piece Lauren. I like that she is still fragile and the heat and falme still runs its course, carefully.

ReplyDeletethough my fragility is constant." Once again, I am dazzled by your facility with imagery and words.
