Smitten, Never Bitten

The angle at which she sits 

creates a need for her to be close 

in order to achieve the fulfillment

of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. 

He loves the equation of their mutual celebration, 

she rides effortlessly using no hands. 

Her lips induce submission 

He became a follower of her stroke

Recognizing Picasso in her movement

Every up an improvement

Every down his amusement.  

Begged and pleaded

mercy unforgiving. 

She warned without him listening. 

Falling victim. 

She has a touch that seeps

downs one spine causing

hips to grind uncontrollably

 in public places.

Embarrassment written

on his face 

reminiscing about her 

specialness
