Our Subtle Sin

Crown me a thief tonight and crucify me to condemnation
For I covet and must pilfer the pintle of this alluring stranger 
I shall taste of another woman's pleasure
And trade my dignity for a moment's lust

Forsake thy marital vows for a minute o Adam
And relish every bit of my feminine wonder
Though you stand in firmness now
Between my thighs shall your mantle bow

I compel you to lead me into a world of erected ecstasy
Feel the softness of my flesh tonight for at dawn I shall be gone
Spread me beneath your warmth and with all rigidity dig deeply
Make every new stroke deeper than the one you gave before
Your strength and virility shall I borrow
Knowing it denies me tomorrow 

Satisfy your craving and bloat on my eden
Sweeter is the experience when pronounced forbidden
Unmask your carnality and caress me in your arm
This enticing temptress shall surrender to your adulterous charm

Be my vanquisher tonight! Shake me and conquer my walls 
Awaken and rekindle the fire of my womanly being 
Let us make every moment count as we enjoy this sinful call
For if the world is but sinful,what greater harm is our subtle sin?

Wow! this is really erotic but subtle at the same time. It uses Biblical imagery and allusion powerfully. You might read my more restrained, repressed Sonnet to Kasia...
