There is a weight

Within me (And I burn)

A kiss Heavier than the sun (And I burn)

A slow invasion

Strange beauty (And I burn)

Rejected in the flesh

And odd nourishment (And I burn)

For my soul

Thickening

Far away atoms

Like fat happy

Buddahs This intimate new language

Softer than the breath

That slips from your lips (And I burn)

In the veretoss (And I burn)

The depth of you (And I burn)

Follows me

And I burn

And I burn
