The wasp queen
she will not sleep. her wings trouble the glass seeking the heat, my breath. her lips are moist,
her wings trouble the glass: they dwindle on my breath. her lips are moist; like mine they part
and dwindle on the whiteness of my skin. like mine they part, those gleaming legs against
the whiteness of my skin. she frets, her sting, her gleaming legs against me. she crawls in.
she frets, she stings. she will not sleep. me, she crawls in seeking the heat.
Meirion Jordon

Mmmm...very interesting use of metaphors!
I like it...
Such simple language, with so many meanings just barely visible under the translucent surface...
Thank you...
