PLEASURE PRINCIPLE

I thought I felt it
The heartbeat of a rainbow
After a lover’s duet
The flattering of whispers grin
Mixed with an organza of caress
Thrown by a cool air after a summer’s thunderstorm

I thought my soul reached midnight’s love on foot
With sweat-soaked offerings

I thought I fell into a comatic lust where his name
Is repeated like a favorite continent

I must have been struck by lightning
For I held on to the sheets with an arched back attached to his pulse
Sucking away his sunrise with satisfaction guaranteed
The taste of sherbert on swollen nipples


He pats me on the ass while I nod like a horse in tears
Ending a race filled with petals inside my nostrils

His grin is peppered with semen
Throbbing drums behind an angelic chorus
When he ventures aimlessly with plows
He growls like Africa’s sweet water
Then silence filters
Our breath dimmers lightly
Until he paraphrases oneness with a hump

Is this piece about me? Maybe I just want it to be about me. Maybe I want a woman to express in such delight moments shared with me. Funny, hadn't thought much about it until I read this piece. GREAT!

MagicalSis said...

most excellent.
yes i would be inclined to enjoy such an intense session as the one described here. the way you intertwine such seemingly unrelated words is quite exquisite.
