Fantasy Blues Thang


Come here,baby!
Join me on this dance floor
I know you want me, just too
afraid to show it.

Come here, baby!
Let's sway, oooh..I know how
you want to play.
In the most sensuous of ways.

Get real, close, I am not afraid
To play in your wild, jungle
ways. 
Sinner man, you, it shines from
those glaring, deep eyes.

It's overtime night, you, me
And whatever honey comes
our way.
Just gotta be real, so, baby.
What do you say?

This poem mimics the great 
Blues music of the USA.
It is not meant to be read 
as autobiographical. 
Earthiness,as in the Blues, 
frightens some people.
Panagiota

Perfect for setting to music; I'll grab my guitar and you sing the words.

Thanks, Caren. I am far from a wild thang. Shakespeare was not all the characters in his plays either. I am wild in terms of being a free, very free spirit. No way Puritannical or hunting down evil sinners. Our society is quite abnormal, but nobody made me Pope! LOL. Churches are good and also have some self righteous folks not Christ like. Panagiota..so happy you got the POTD,))
