On a Butterfly Doss
ON A BUTTERFLY DOSS
Draw me close,
Shall I sink into your bosom
like dripping coin beneath the sea;
The world is you and I on a butterfly doss!
GROOM:
Shall I stare into your enigmatic blue eyes,
Until my image is implanted in your eyes
And your heart shall beat in the rhythm of my name!
I shall kiss you passionately,
Until your breath becomes mine-
Thine cloying kiss satiating like a honeydew.
And when I'm on your succulent breast,
The world is you and I on a butterfly doss!
BRIDE:
Screaming in the rhythms of the piano
O' jealous demons of the cold world shall vanish into the caves!
Hold me gently ,
Shall I find myself no more but lusting in your mind.
Caress me gently like an orange juice
until I'm wet like a fresh morning leaf
Oh how sweet you thrust your golden mushroom rod through my nectar'd oasis,
Come in deep and pollinate my anther!
Just a cotillion, a seed of you burgeons in my joyful garden.
The world is you and I on a butterfly doss.
