SUGAR BUZZ

                            

        

you wondered in

with a Cheshire grin

eyes made for sin

I'm all in

ready for the trip

next hit or miss

the spike of lightening's strike

not once but twice

blinded by the flashes

streaks of color found

the long way around

an unexpected place

caught me indeed

swept me off my feet

looked me up and down

face to face

close and secret

our eyes ready to devour

the first layer

caught right there

crashing through the urge to tear

stranger's arm to arm

in the need

the pushing force of a stampede

pull of a stranger's kiss

a punch in the face

force the twisting gears

the sweet candy taste

drops of colors

all of them

even sparkles

odd hints of tinted shade

smashed in whole

shapes of hunger

new an old

lost and found

touching me insane

lacking restraint

jolly ranchers gone extreme

falling the instant

lips collide

a push purely ravenous

a taste of cherry snow

frozen delight

stalking me dizzy

cuz a banana split melts quickly

sugar coma coming into focus

turning from the stranger

that salty shiver of surrender

still in his sights

a tingling of zots

fresh on my lips

the war of sweet and sour

promising kismet

wrapped in a kiss

I need a straight coke

and a shot of pop rocks

this guy is Cherries Garcia

with an angel's touch

cotton candy shades of blue

floating softly in the sky

beyond a dream

just around the corner

over the rainbow

lost on every aisle

gazing deep

into the icee machine

sugar buzz black out

left me 

standing alone

can't stop thinking about candy. the "buzz" created by your words equally as effective as sugar. both sweet and powerful ...

[TerryDarcy-Ryan akaSheerTerror]

Pete, as is your review Sweet and Powerful. Thank you

[Carol Cashes]

Equating the different flavors and textures of candy with the different flavors and textures of a stranger's attraction? Brilliant.

Best lines:

"A coke and a shot of pop rocks
This guy is Cherries Garcia
With an angel's touch"

Carol, I see I hit your sweet tooth. You know our generation grew up with the strange stories regarding pop rocks. My point, its all courage to slam a shot of pop rocks and a coke. Thank you so much for taking the time to read and review
