Bursting into flames
ashes, glowing embers
swirling to the ground
only to rise up again
whirling into the sun
to become a
A bee trying to sting the sun
drawn to golden syrup
heavy with sweetness
only to tumble back to earth
like Icarus, his wings melting
in the setting sun
to become a
A black camellia
with rich, iridescent purple hues
unfurling its petals
releasing a heady scent
seeking to draw honey-hungry
insects in
to drown them
to immolate herself
on their desire
seeking to become a
water sprite
reveling in robes
of turqouise green,
aquamarine blue, crowned
with seafoam, twirling
in sea and river, to
see who she can draw in
who will accept her wet
embrace
until she finally melts into
Green moss, yellow
lichen, sword ferns
dappled with sunlight
A deer's chocolate brown
eyes, speckled fur, velvety
black lips, snuffing
in the forest, search
for her salt lick
all these, I became with you
all these and more, I saw through your eyes
all these and more
