We are burning
Our chests are play fighting
Breasts and breaths fill the space between us
This electricity
Enabling energy
Enabling ecstasy
Disabling every other charge on any single thing we have
been thinking
Sinking into mattresses
Heaving seas of legs weaved
We see heat come from places we’ve only known and felt was inhabited by Arctic frost
Our bodies are lost under blankets
Gasps and grasps as this desperation closes the gap between us
We are burning.
