Plucked petals madly

by Mainon A Schwartz

plucked petals madly--
the bloodscatter shift and through
cracked gravity, float, crash, explode
yet tenderfall to dust

disheveled glances torn--
drenching cornerscotch and atmosphere
backache, pinksqueeze, undertwine
and featherwall for lust

excruciate dipped lashes --
collective flashing black, react
smack defensed, lost glimmergloss
and hungerstall-- we must.

Author's Note: an experiment in passion-- reactions welcome.

this reminds me of two strangers having instant chemistry and staring each other down. (down, down down...) *tilts her head again.* i see her blinking first. perhaps. i like this. the rhyme is subtle, and i like the desperation in the last line.
