Maddening Mathematics

Converging forces, volatile and caustic Magnetism drew us two poles together south on south Defying physics ,advice, and common sense We tempted fate and dove in ...in straight jackets Your unabashed, uninhibited way drove me wild Impetuous like a child, I was the toy My outspoken, wild, and lively heart lured you in Your rivaling sexuality compelled me Fires burning bright and lively, shining in one space Feeding off the common oxygen Meeting in the middle, devouring each other Our flames' outer flickering intertwined and danced Oh so hot, we moved the earth Making love for all it's worth... ...sweating, gasping, grabbing rapture Competitive inclination drove erotic mingling to crescendo One step past the edge sex was sport and we gladiators Appeased one another's arena We could never be...My best friend, My BEST lover An equation seemingly perfect from every side Her Thunder and mine could never exist in one space Aware of this...parting ways completely Neither she or I could bare a friendship remainder in these maddening mathematics

Hot with passion, Steve! "Sex was sport and we gladiators" is a compelling analogy. Love the way you work scientic terms into this awesome verse! Love, Carolyn

It is amazing the way you put so much passion into your writing. It leaves the reader nearly breathless with excitement. I love the way you two common things and turn them into something magical. Math and sex, wow. It is in all forms the way life is though not many would make such a scientific comparrison. I love the thunder for that is when passion for most is its highest. Awesome write.
