artist unknown

drawn in fine charcoal
-artist unknown-
a network of midnight hatchwork
obsidian glow

from the black wings of the eyebrows
to the crescent shadow of the toes
a vertical panorama of darkness
from this point all things grow

webs of sketched tracks
marching wildly up a leg's line
trailing rims of licorice
ephemeral presentation tossed to time

lightness and nightness
your jaguar passion purr
coffee skin, lacquer eyes
mushing, melding, slur

propped up on the elbows
an organic eisel display
three dimensional rendering
tissued shelter, earlobe, sway

we come to play red bird-wild cat
in the gut of the evening's break
our bottomless pit of magician's hat
swapped token's
lover's cake
