My refuge is here
in this beautiful
ink
dance
these curves of letters like lovers wrapped around the thigs
my temple arms winding dreams with ankle bells jingling
my torture
rapture in refined wrappings
around the breasts
the days opening my pages with colorful allure
dressed in sharp little claws
my swinging undulations slick and smooth against a hip
a curve of cheek between my palms
 
Darken me
I don’t care
corral me
I won’t burst my tethers
all I want is to be your decollatage
your lips’ honey
your every need embe dded in fine parchment
golden beaded papyrus
sugar cubes between my teeth
wounds in my bones
sweet berries on a vine before my calighraphic shift
and curves
to fill your belly
and your mind
pear
succulent
syrup glaze
across a tale sprinkled with fresh mint
and life

ahem well I must say I love how you write-how you must sound when you express such lovely words in person must be equally as enchanting

That is how I feel about words... I laugh every time I hear that "My Fair Lady" song... "words, words, words, I'm so sick of words..." but could you imagine life with someone who never said a word...just DID? --agonizing thought! And lonely! Oh, man... --Charlie

my temple arms winding dreams with ankle bells jingling
my torture....

Your words like sitting in awe at the feet of someone you don't come across often absorbing such beauty in words wishing you could express even half as good. Well done very captivating indeed. So glad I chanced upon you. Deborah

"A curve of cheek between my palms", is this not pensive? Your poem dances with delight in the light side of my awareness. Suggestive, perspectives I do not routinely entertain. Poeticize as frequently as you feel urged. I will peruse with joy. Jon Michael Willey
Reviewed by La Belle Rouge 4/10/2008
One of the VERY BEST poems I've read lately, deep and rich. This had to be penned by a true poetess.
