14,239. SACRED TO HEART

SACRED TO HEART
The torrent of my blinding heart
is what you think you're seeing;
but it's not. I was only born to
see this through. Yesterday, and
tomorrow too. Are they supposed
to all add up to pleasure?
-
Here the letters I've written  can 
really stand out  -  I can write them
to you, like a postcard from some
lucrative spa, waiting for my steam
to change to fire and burn me.
-
A scalded heart is probably red, as
red as that of Jesus, the one with
the sacred heart, emitting small 
flames like desire. Is that really
how one radiates goodness?
