A Poem

Fall

It's officially the season of fall As in, the season to fall in lust ~ The season to fall into bed with the first warm body that makes it past orientation The season to fall to my knees in front a vampire with a dominant streak The season of cinnamon scented sins and pumpkin flavored desire The season to salivate over the changing colors of red flags ~ The season to await the frostbite on body parts only our eyes can see And then eventually to wrap them with bows and cover them with tinsel Then once they are unwrapped, to watch as they begin to defrost And after the sun comes back out to melt the evidence, To turn to ghosts til it's time to fall once more
