bourbon tinted sunrise




morning sweat
earned by dreams that carry the soundtrack
of the sizzle that 7th Avenue South has
when the summer sun hits it just right

carry an undertone
Himalayan pink salt and burnished vanilla
and bourbon born of honey and long whispers
around mountain tops

yet
there's no burn present as the eyes open
which makes the thought of her
easy to taste but dangerous to drink deeply

without her giving you more
