Biting the bullet!

As promised, posting a tiny snippet of writing whilst holding my breath about doing so! Just a little something about a desert leopardess.

Simoom

mantle of snow kissed cool by moon
silk sable rosettes painted pristinely
eyes of ancient amber
burning through the night
She is present and she is perfect
as the folds in windswept sand
parched of rain
quiet but untamed
and later
hot and burning
beneath the milky snow mantle
and smooth sheet of silk sable rosettes.
