Trap In a Choice -

You have stained stars in your eyes tonight, a gold glitter asunder as vast as any Past stuck fast on this moon light sight, give me softly the sultry sigh of a woman's strong age, I am not passing the page until the dire of dawn ushers me to the cage, twinkles and sprinkles make for the tingles between you & I my Lady, sparkles finite glow warm, a silent swarm in thick air for our remote melody, starvations lead to ovations from humbled hearts searching blind for succulent cures for a mad malady, a kiss, calm as crystal and firm like a promise pronounced proud by a dreamy lover drives me happy, My love, where are your f---ing fangs & whispy wings, clever you are,like fire on ice, playing nice but in disguise choosing random nights, a fickle nightingale setting sail to numerous posts and ports, swift as thunder with brief endearings, vanishing like a whisk whisper and laughing lovingly,sparingly spry, the companionship provided is priceless with a somber cost, a Providential promiscuity true & dry, your absence and unpredictability feeling cold as Aphrodite's icon rough & rocky, would Venus die, cry, or lie if asked ardently why She consumes the blood of my heart, pitfalls for passions, enticements for indictments of innocence, woman this carnival shocks me silly, never the less, the beauty of you is boundless, consequence forever in a lingering fragrence, like a confused comet I volunteered my vitality for your invitation to a sheltered rampart, deny me what you will, charge me as much you can, for I am enthralled by this romance and Virtuoso's dance - J.A.B. 2003

JUSTIN, coming back to your comment on my comment. Sweet!!! As you know this has been one of the worst years ever (FOR ME) ... I found my strength in God, I never gave up the fight. But, the fight I was winning, was only going to hurt my loved ones in the long wrong. In that, I asked God, to give me the willpower to walk away. Miracles and Healing ---- All I can say for now :). Always ~LINDA

There is beauty in all you write, Justin. Sometimes...it leaves one speechless, for what can one say to such beauty? It enthralls. "Woman, this carnival shocks me silly." It gave me an internal giggle...Loved that line. "The sultry sigh of a woman's strong age." Yes, woman...lose inhibitions as they age...and they become more giving. Lovely work, Justin. Thanks for all your visits to me....

You didn't quote the entire line Eileen, " Never the less, the beauty of you is boundless..." I love the way you give, and take, and play woman. Your body of work does the same to my senses. Genius loves Genius. J.A.B.

Ouf...your third eye feels to be charged and acutely discerning, Justin. Difficut to understand why your Lady would dance away without you.:( She sounds to be somewhat of a coward; not the "Warpath Woman" you so desperately need and desire? Still, I haven't heaps of knowledge nor wisdom to share.:( Romanticism at it's finest; enjoyed your write! Best wishes, Mikki
