this was inspired by Kim's lecture on syntax

Celsius/Fahrenheit

so cold outside the Appleby's
and you are laughing again,
the hood of your sweatshirt
pulled up like a yellow cowl,
your new bangs shimmering in your eyelashes,
so warm your breath of vodka and sausage,
so hot and soft your tongue
on the corner of my jaw,
as hot as new cake on a plate,
the pink frosting
melting slick as molten glass
and running down the sides
