Eroticism -
             a supple spine in a wanting curve
       and a foolish fever simmers a scarlet heartbeat -
    temptation is an aphrodisiac

A Walk With Me
Waves crash the rocks in ecstasy
as I pass the archway 
to the sea.
Onwards to the village, 
busy cafes,
the aroma of coffee brewing,
as a power of teens gather, texting.
 
I venture down 
a chestnut lined road
under a canopy 
of Copper Beech
where bright shafts of sun
illuminate a...

Bagheera - the Black Cat
Black softness nestles in his sheen so fab
as warm purrs vibrate his feline aura
Gash-like, a red neck-sash swings a gleaming
heart-shaped pendant, swaying a dangled flash.
Ebon stretches as the midnight creature
elongating his compacted frame, lithe.
Reaching, he uncurls a bounding jaguar
awake to the moon’s abracadabra

Premium Member Home Awakens
The house sits silent. 

All but for the creaks and groans 

as the house settles on it’s aging foundation. 

The arthritic sound of wood. 

A faint hum from the refrigerator, 

is the backdrop, to the passing of time 

from the Grandfather clock in the hall....

The Miracle of Green Tea
Fresh virgin leaves
Green as the dewy grass
Hiding a golden miracle
As it meets warm water
Soothing to the core
As it uncurls and spreads
A ray of morning light
In every sip
A little sweet
And then a bit bitter
Caressing dry lips and throat
Purifying the soul within
The miracle of green tea

                    for it has all come down to now!"

Will the catcher put down the one?

Spring Jewels
Spring Jewels

White feather tipped clouds
Design blue skies with a brocade
A coat of many colors nature dons
Her golden locks a Rapunzel’s braid

A braid made from overlays
Of grains and grass slightly curled
Budding plains of fruited beauty
Breathlessly waiting as spring uncurls       ...

Night After Night
I watch you close your eyes,
your beautiful body curls so,
I hold you in my arms
with your sweet, warm afterglow...

I watch you sleep - silent sleep,
your body still curled so,
I tenderly caress your skin
ever so gentle and slow...

I watch you start to quiver,
your body now uncurls...

Shed Your Regret
7/11/12

----------------------------------------------------

Lost, freaked out, unwanted
It is always the same
Stuck in a life that will always be claimed
Change makes me hurl
Excites the world—uncurls the curl
There is evidence of your death here
You are gone forever, drained by fear
My defenses are obviously gone
Though to begin with they were never...

  My hair caressed by the fervent musical breeze,
     atop the cliff of innocence my fingers freeze,
  I look down in ravines of whirling waves and wait,
     the moment of euphoria clings to a concealed...

Elusive Poem
I sit on the couch, waiting for a poem
to emerge from the emptiness filling my head.
I gaze at the two armchairs sitting across from me,
So proper and upright, poised in expectancy of a poem 
landing in their laps any minute now. 
Ready to decipher and...

Spaciously high
Each peak risin mighty high
I see not the shallows form
mountain rise climb rise high

Worlds eyes on self
Lucifer soiled the garden
New heaven new earth
Spaciously high
We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.

from afar
    the dark flows
pride

      before chance
