A layer multiplies, endless symbols thrown together,
Shaped into a housewarming collage collecting dust
Blurred from existence
Her face and his unrecognizable,
their eyes glisten in delusion like a sedated dog.
Volumizing cycles of grilling food popping,
Hot oil closes in, intimidating their fragile flesh.
Smooth coiled curls ruffle under sunkissed water
Floating through the beams,
The sounds of succulent oranges urges her to take a bite
Her nose spelled out citrus cherry breaths through chlorine.
Hair slicked and slabbed to the back of her neck
Like gummed clay,
Her feet punching against stiff sand,
Digging in its textures.
The last quarter of its scarlet pulps he savors
For his last taste.
Red juices marked all across his coffee fingers.
Her eyes and his eyes locked,
used to this frame.
A camera shot in between consciousness,
A photo printed,
The firm smell wraps across her spinal cords,
its warmth hugs.
This endless memory hangs beside abandonment.
Its silhouette collects dust.
