Leapfrog

A frog leaps between your eyes. 
The fear was intense- 
and pain was possessive. 

In besieged apples, there 
was no forensic probe. Carnality 
takes the back seat. 

One dropp of honeydew destroys 
the contours of hills. Moon 
will wear the unseen costume. 

The purple sand now sends 
the topless marines to fight 
with tender stings. 

I am here, with an azure sky 
to unfold the secret of dark flames. 
O rose, send the bouquet.
