The scent of sandalwood
In perfectly soft skin.
The color of shaven pine.
Long and tall
Strength and
Rhythm and
Stupidity and
Lust and
Childlike love and
Perfected imperfection and
Arrogance and

Eyes wide open;

Gotta dream of you,
WIDE
AWAKE.
Heh, heh, heh!

I see you again
Standing in front of me
Holding my hands
And smiling at
