We Rose Up Slowly Lichtenstein

I want to pour myself into you reciprocal medicine drink me in as I am swallowed up in the moment pain relief as senses forget themselves in that occupied space of one there is no room for the rest of the world no room for elements of me I hate just deliciously, taken in consumed I'm not poison but a tonic wellness pulsates beyond bodies an attractive aftermath of peacefulness as addictive as any drug the capacity within humans not of animalism but something heavenly not bottled but stored within unlock my mind again and again as only you can.

Thank you Jo, it was very absorbing to write this one. So easy to get carried away by art x

I'm not poison but a tonic... nice.. I felt it captures the essence of a profound, healing love that transcends the physical and touches the spiritual. The language is sensual yet tender, and the structure enhances the poem's intimate feel. This piece is a testament to the transformative power of love and connection, making it a poignant and moving read. However, knowing you, its probably not about love.. lol

You got me, it's about the restorative effects of quinine ;)
