heartbeat thrumming silent flutter lashes brush tender moon-pale flesh oceanic rhythm rosewater blood infrared telegraph whispers direction guides me, trembling to the mouth of flowersOk, this is a piece I feel weird about. It's...barely-rotic in any traditional sense but close enough I felt it best to mark it as such. The title (and inspiration for the concept) is a place-name in Ireland which I think is the most poetic in the world..."The Mouth of Flowers".
