Sunlight Melts
Like lemon drops
And butterscotch lace
Kissing
Tick
An icy dam
Tock
Dripping down the side
Seeping through the cracks
Spilling over
Molten flame
Licking at the
Patchwork parts
The cold fights back
Tick
Like a broken flurry of
Plastic wrapped mints
Tock
Cutting deep
Frenzied
Heated satin
Cauterizes all breaches
Lapping up tiny
Peppermint tears
This house
Is a walk-in freezer
Tick
Burning exposed flesh
Tock
