~Sappy Daze~ Day 17

From A Poor Secret Admirer Probably 

I’m determined to become rich 
with loving memories of you and I.

Unlike money, love can’t be measured, 
so prove you love me 
with a savings account 
of romantic adventures:

Front-row seats to a symphony 
of your snores and whispers. 

A limited edition perfume 
of your morning breath. 

A proposal so sweet 
it’s topped off with a ring pop. 

A honeymoon lavishly decorated 
with your goofy smile.

Yes, I confess I’m a gold digger. 
I’m greedy to live a broke life with unbroken love.

If you’re okay with that, 
won’t you be my lover, 
my clearance aisle breadwinner?

Both warning and shelter at once, this fortress is one of several way stations for island hoppers navigating the icy southern archipelagos of 1c. The surrounding region is often covered in a dense fog and low-lying clouds thanks to lava-driven upwellings, and the occasional eruption can cause severe, localized storms, making the region one of the most perilous to traverse. Like most structures on 1c, it has a deep underground network for harnessing geothermal energy and a small cache of resources in the event that a visitor requires shelter from a storm.

Capturing Campus: Hummingbird

Hummingbird 

what must it be like to know someone?

not their favorite color or where they went to high school or where they want to retire or how they like their scrambled eggs on any given Sunday

but the texture of their skin

the patterns on their fingertips

born in the womb of their mother

the webbing and weaving 

are they high-strung or laid back?

with skin that sags around soft eyes

and peach fuzz

molded lips that taste of

dark-roasted coffee 

and the beating in their chest like a hummingbird 

when I press my ribs against theirs, my hip bone against theirs

we make a sculpture that breathes and pours

with sweat and some saccharine 

pleasure in the moment 

a pulsing and pressure

the roughness of legs

shaved two days ago

the bowing of their side and the curve of their arms 

bracing and borrowing glances

eyes closed, mouth wide

taking honeysuckle and morning dew

speaking only of cardamom and chamomile

whispering of rapture

to be enchanted in a body

to feel, to know

“Very.”

Sorry for being a little late on this one!! 

When me and my brother were kids, we LOVED Oreos. I liked the cream parts and he liked the biscuits, so I would just throw my parts to him. Now that I’ve moved out though,  I don’t know what to do with the biscuits, so I stack them until I can figure it out.
