The Thrilling In-Between

"The Thrilling In-Between"



Touched
Soft cerebral
warm breath 
paints dusky the warm place
whispers across satin skin 
laces come undone
on the lost floor fallen
her skin runs like a river
under the velvet of 
his beckoning windows
she’s a mystery
as he tastes her  
boundaries 
between the 
districts of 
stay or go
Sliding hands
over a new map
uncovering secrets and
their uncharted territories 
they're both deep 
hidden-wells
he doesn’t want you 
to feel ill at ease
she thinks where’s 
the thrill in that, please?
genuflecting on her knees
Manifesting forbidden
apples is Eve
legs entwined around 
Adam’s farewell green leaves
red cherry rose
lips to drink in
another’s soul
to taste and 
Touch his
Soft cerebral

Moving ever closer
they dance the 
Thrilling In-Between
two smiles evolve
conjoined flames
their largeness
in life grows
Burning hot
their sensual world
sanguine 
immolating
cerebral soft 
like a river 
flows

Lady Labyrinth Date: 12/26/2018 11:09:00 PM “The most haunting woman is the one we cannot find in the crowded café when we are looking for her, the one that we must hunt for, and seek out through the disguises of her stories.” Anaïs Nin, Delta of Venus Login to Reply Lady Labyrinth Date: 12/26/2018 11:15:00 PM “It was this that frightened me--the sense that behind the grande amoureuse lay concealed a little bourgeoise who wanted security in love.” Anaïs Nin, Delta of Venus Lady Labyrinth Date: 12/26/2018 11:11:00 PM “I must be a mermaid, Rango. I have no fear of depths and a great fear of shallow living.” Anais Nin

Lady Labyrinth Date: 12/26/2018 11:01:00 PM “One is not born, but rather becomes, a woman.” Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex Login to Reply Lady Labyrinth Date: 12/26/2018 11:04:00 PM “When she does not find love, she may find poetry. Because she does not act, she observes, she feels, she records; a color, a smile awakens profound echoes within her; her destiny is outside her, scattered in cities already built, on the faces of men already marked by life, she makes contact, she relishes with passion and yet in a manner more detached, more free, than that of a young man. Being poorly integrated in the universe of humanity and hardly able to adapt herself therein, she, like the child, is able to see it objectively; instead of being interested solely in her grasp on things, she looks for their significance; she catches their special outlines, their unexpected metamorphoses. Lady Labyrinth Date: 12/26/2018 11:02:00 PM She rarely feels a bold creativeness, and usually she lacks the technique of self-expression; but in her conversation, her letters, her literary essays, her sketches, she manifests an original sensitivity. The young girl throws herself into things with ardor, because she is not yet deprived of her transcendence; and the fact that she accomplishes nothing, that she is nothing, will make her impulses only the more passionate. Empty and unlimited, she seeks from within her nothingness to attain All.” Simone de Beauvoir, The Second Sex
