‎~
i am a mosquito inhaling hypothermia's scorching breath,
helping with the homicide of my mucus-encrusted enzymes and cells,
cytoplasm seeping into the ice, snowflakes giggling.

she undresses me, clips off my wings,
uses them as tangled sheets around our feet
that hallucinated circulating blood, and blood cells that haven't died.

=
my eyes roll with the euphoric embrace,
her saliva whirlpools around my throat,
drops into the cracks of my teeth,
tree sap traps me in the bark,
asclepias was hidden in her mouth.
certain spieces of asclepias are poisonous, and will drive a person to euphoria before killing them. the poison used to be called the drink of immortality or the elixir of life. the end.

Ooh gosh how lovely! Well, the actions may not be but man, are they described beautifully. The first few lines of the last stanza especially caught my eye. Fantastic Clap
