allure.

she blew into my life
like a sirocco drifts over
the mediterranean sunset
her skin like fleshy drupes
lounging on a tree of olives
cabernet lips, deep
as ocean tide rolling out to sea
her memory lingers on my
oblivion
teasing my perception
of what is real, and what
is but a figment of
my sensibility
those eyes unchanging
[will she remember me once I am gone??]
but none of this matters anymore
she is but a midnight recollection
invading my subconscious --
she is my beautiful dream.
