¡Cuidado! Piso resbaloso si esta mojado.

lyrics

There is no explanation for what you do to me...

Words stumble & fail me like happy drunks in alcoholic stupor during New Year's Eve revelries.
So giddy am I when intoxicated with the merest thoughts of you.

Shadows of you blind me...
Gamma Rays burst in your eyes...

I shudder at the thought of what it would be like in your presence.

Gleaming , brilliant, radiant, lustrous
Glowing, beaming, blazing, dazzling,
Yes, like the childhood songs of yore, I sing:

Starlight, Starbright first star I see tonight
I wish I may, I wish I might burn in your candlelight....

You are all things sunlit & moonbeamed...

Effulgence is you...
I want to bathe in the milky phosphorescence of your love

And I?

Supplicant...
A grateful mendicant bowing to your glory.

Your every utterance reaches me at the most visceral level.
Limbic brain shunts all flows to all other functions
Then my mind becomes:

Electrified,
Stupified,
Mesmerized

Til I am reduced to nothing
But a dumb beast at your beck & call...
A wild thing waiting to be tamed by your lion's whip...
Longing for the lash of your tongue,
All juicy fruited...

Macerating like ripe cherries steeped forever in the armagnac of your words.

You alone fill me with spirits divine.

Command me to
And I will melt inside myself,
all creamy & smooth.
My concavities- salt-licked oceans

Thirsting...
Longing...
Needing...

for your swim into my depths.

I become slippery when wet...

Let us ride these waves until the tides all run dry...
