Mosquito

Silent,deadly dengue, like a night of black fear
Closing in, homing in, getting near

On her flight path, past exhaled breath of our union
Of my body & blood, her communion

Resting on the unconscious sweated flesh
Sucking brandy-blood, to fly intoxicated with fresh

Supply to nourish her off-springs
Licking my blood, pruning her sticky wings
