The White Sin Poem by Suzanne Bronson

The White Sin



Why is it you
whose body calls to mine?

Behind your eyes
that same rabid desire.
The sin never realized –
filling, wanting, waiting –
that handful of flame.

And yet the burning is enough.
The ash would fill my mouth –
a taste – where
your name and kiss had been.

2007 Suzanne Bronson
