Your cool oasis
long and lean
shimmering in sunlight
icy and fresh
It is
so...
hot.
The pavement steams
the city undulates
sweltering
under
its flesh.
Caramel and chocolate
and vanilla skin
is faded and pale
drowning
in summer sweat.
Can I dip my tongue
into your coolness?
Let me taste your ice
tickling my lips
bathe your crystals
in my heat
until your frost...
melts.
