my shadows lusting gleams

Exquisite are the nights
this shadow walks to lean,
transcending did excite
feeling feeding in it teams,
ravished senses blushing
ached blessings torqued ignite
drawn enfolds in lusting
Water,Fire,Wind ... Earth brightened

A rasp of gentle breath
tasting silk dripped nights,
falling sighs in little deaths
sensuous knowing sighted

No reason in the flowing
of interlocking vows,
ecstasy trapped the banging
drowned out screams of now
trickled kisses sprinkled
wicked rallied into fumes,
heating bellowed winds
spell thrown around the room

Unfurled in slowing motion
a flower in the bloom

Sweet the gentle floats
a feather in the wind
languorous is the wanting
being ravished in this sin
throwing off restraint
bedazzled witches bound
beauty in the spooning
can always be profound

Breathing in blasphemed
gloried velvet charms
glowing in the eddy's
I am sated and disarmed

Dear Jayne-Chloe,

This is tussling poem. It describes an apparently foreplayless sex (could be that we are entering the scene somewhat after play got underway), full of rush: this shadow walks to lean, scented and excited feeling feeding in it teams, ravished sense is busting ached blessings torqued ignite And the poem tussles in more ways than one. It is as if the rhyme is being, well..., ok, somewhat fucked away. But like a habit's sex is still here and there, in gasps. Now lets look closer: this shadow walks to lean, [This line is quite subtle in the torquing but great] scented and excited [What scent? Will any do? Is there some way of conveying excitement in a none standard fashion?] feeling feeding in it teams, [This is such an effective, and unusual, way to signal urgency] Your move to experiment with words is on display. But, like many things in the midst of change, there is confusion between the new style and the previous; something so normal as to have a name: transition. You have been having a long love affair with the symbols of a perfect, and old fashion, romance. Unsullied winged unicorns and fairy dust: "Find me gently, know me wholly, holy, holy." If there is a problem with such a dream, it is that one cannot be known, wholly or holy, without the telling of story. The partner does not initially know the dream without the telling, and it will be his dream, likely, only by adoption. So, it is a dream laden with control. And you, the dreamer, cannot find perfection in the wingless profane dust of today, only a finger's grasp away, while waiting for an endlessly unprepared perfection to carry you into dreams of flight. And as you move to find beauty in the more mundane, there is conflict between that old wish for control and the new partial surrender. So, that transition is here in quantity, dueling, like the bodies soaking one another. There is a jumble in the poem, that speaks both to the transition and to the passion unfolding, for their is a connection between the these apparently different things. Five stars for the gutsy work. Brian

I sometimes wonder that you people see a part of me I dont even see,and know things about me I dont know, but in saying that your right, conflicted parts of me went into writing this one,expeimenting with thought and words I am trying to find poetry that fixs me , I devour poetry in hopes of finding a contempory voice inside me, Striving to find my niche but happy doing it , poetry and writing gives me a peace nowdays I dont find anywhere else,I am really blessed to have found it late,better late than never, thank you so much for reading this one, it was bold and Naughty, and after you comment you have challenged me again you know lol ... I took a half step away from fantasy and wove a little real world in it, lets see if in the next while I cant write one free of mysterious creatures lol ... thank you again without these comments I would be flying in the wind fretting and not knowing if they are any good ... Love Jayne (hugz) Tell Olya I loved her new poem ... have just reread it in the light of day its just better not different, I am always tired when I read in the night lol

Hey, it’s a hot hot

Hey, it's a hot hot summer's day into night. and if we ain't got it going on, it's still a great read indeed, eh? (And I thought it was hot flashes!) Is there anything so wickedly good as lusty poet? ~A "There are very few human beings who receive the truth, complete and staggering, by instant illumination.

? ! ? ! ?

Since I wrote verses about passion, I had to contrast mine with yours, and I bow to the master. Where I simply did a rather mechanical play by play, you used images that put the magic in the moment: ached blessing torqued... silk dripped nights... no reason in the knowing... I could go on but I would be simply copying every line. I am a little obtuse when it comes to such images so I had to read the poem several times to get the meaning of them all, but the "shadow walks to lean" has got me stumped. The only thing I could come up with was an erection. Thanks for posting. And I echo the previous congratulations.

Thank you so much for your comment lol ... I could say something but right now I am going to behave myself and have some decorum ... I am new at this and just finding my stride so definatly no master but thank you for the compliment ... OK the explanation for the shadow walks to lean ? When you walk along and you look at your shadow? it usually looks straight but when your looking at anothers shadow coming towars you or a shadow on a wall ? there is usually a lean its just something I have noticed in life ... was just a visual tool I used to describe the man and the woman coming together so to speak ... So hope my explanation makes some semblence of sense .. as it is only my veiw of the world lol .. take care Regards Jayne x
