Notes About The Poem

Grovelling

The moon is hidden out of sight
I come to you at dead of night
The latch is lifted on the door
You stand aloof as I implore
I kneel and grovel on the floor
I am aware of the full score
The whip is flicked; I crawl to you
In leather dressed, I take your cue
Out come the blindfold and the rope
With knots and teasing I can cope
You have your urges and the need
To act on impulse and to feed
On domination, unrestrained
Within the mind it is ingrained
You find release in mistress role
But I, the slave, am in control
Now is the time to beg of you
At height of passion what is due
Intense the climax of this game
I reach my aim; you call my name.

[Pride of place I shall fill
....... On Camera & Quill!]

Thank you for coming back with this lovely feedback and congrats, Eileen:) Yes, I believe that it is important to know the persons we are dealing with; like that we can understand better their feelings and emotions when we read their poetry. It does make a difference! Appassionata is both supportive and generous:) Hugs // paul
