\nA loud tumble out of bed
\nThe smell of sizzling meats
\nA soft kiss on the cheek
\nThen later,<\/p>\n
The sound of water crashing nearby,
\nThe coolness of it caressing skin
\nThe lightness of weight as we swim

\nClick-clack click-clack<\/em>
\nImagination as dice make swords strike true
\nLaughter pealing through the air
\nSorrow as the clicks roll in our disfavor
\nThen later,<\/p>\n
\nThe smell of smoke and again
\nThe sound of sizzling meat
\nMore dice, glinting in the dim light
\nReflecting beneficially as they roll toward victory
\nThen Later,<\/p>\n
\nWarm bodies gently shifting as
\nRumbling breaths lead to snoring and
\nDreams confess the past<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
