your aurora eyes

scan the sky like skittish wind

you are pollen in an arctic land

wrinkle embraces smile

lost white comes uncertainly

there is a clear heaven scent

so cold

so February

so grave

it muffles dawn

I am ice that will never be water

burning cold, like an opposite sun

too bright to focus on

I wish to warm your hands

before the wealth of spring

to melt winter

into fire whistling tea

to warm

your sore throat

to immerse

your unmarked skin

to pour

over glowing coals

almost gone

but steam never illuminates

the burns it leaves

as deep as any flame

it has no calligraphic sharp tongue

to write

the words all lovers want to wear
