Idle Hands

Mine hands
Sinful tools possessed
Dance along the periphery 
Of thy intimate domain
Touching and probing
With subtle  
Perverse persuasions

Caressing thy sweet softness
With course and brutal desires
Has thou the courage
Within thy soul
For acceptance of such 
And grant admittance
Into thy Forbidden garden

Or shall these hands 
Be bound and left idle
Their tools left to rust
From the tears 
Of mine intimate frustrations
