Intent

By

Radioactive flashes, 

tiny chemical reactions, 

living floating lanterns 

chattering in glow.

Morse bursts in 

the shuddering lush. 

Luminous declarations of

danger, feast, and lust-

electrify the stifling night.

Swipe

A small palm snagging, 

squishing, snuffing, out 

the language light. Then, 

florid gore spreads.

Cue searing tears and

soapy rinse, then

back to grasping, 

chasing, laughing- 

perilous pure intent.
