Come she does.
Ah, love--
It's sweet
--so sweet
in the black garden where she blooms.
Sensation ignites, taking root in her toes and in her fingernails, raking across willowy limbs and setting fire to her spine. She wants to writhe beneath the moonless dark, to bite the air from this strange world and hold it hostage behind her teeth.
But his voice casts out its lure, farther away than it has ever been now that he has lips with which to speak, but no less velvet soft. Moth-hungry, she rises, reaching for his hand, her fingertips barely grazing the treasure map of his palm.
Even that is enough for captivation to take root; with her eyes cast down from the blind sky, she walks her touch along the inside of his wrist, wanting to laugh but barely comprehending how. "So warm." It's a hoarse whisper that will soon become a sultry purr, a siren song in the making.

let me put my lips to something
let me wrap my teeth around the world
