sultry
birdmad thick night air

hot like breath

the jasmine incense stick burning in its stand and the cold drink sweating in its bottle next to my table

a night like this
days like these

memory of crazier times past, spent covered in more sweat than just my own.

memory of a furtive attempt to seduce a beloved friend on a steamy night like this one - only to be stopped by my own apprehension instead of by hers

nothing good ever stays

at least not here

misstree the heat of her breath
surrounds me, steals the air
from my lungs, steals any desire
to move, to be anywhere
but here, makes me sticky
and salty, makes me want to
strip down to nothing and
disappear in her breath.
