I’ve bloomed past blossom season, a frame held by flesh, fragile.
Wrinkles appear now, near feet left by crow.
You see the grey in the brown, see a patch of scalp showing,
you see the change in my gait, see my once brisk pace slowing.
But you don’t see me. I am no longer desirable, desired,
nor worth a glance from afar. A smile. You don’t see me.

The old facts lie, the old truth dies
Everything needs update
The new facts open our eyes
Revisionism is great
New lemming-minded must observe
This harsh reality
The world we thouroughly deserve
Our ancestors couldn’t see
So after cleaning it looks fine
This good old brave new world
Its pharisees and philistines
Its glorified absurd
What’s new, looks old, and in reverse
Its all the same, my dear
The truth enacts with inner source
Of deepest secret fear
In order to avoid the bad
Consequences we see
We drink more wine, and eat less bread
Watching the tides at sea.

William shows his absolute integrity and empathy when he says
“If I had anything tender in me, I shot it dead.
How can I write to you after what I’ve done?
What I’ve seen?”
Sure, he is a deserter, but there is so much more to this man.
He is not only a deserter, he is a husband and a caregiver.
He is a man who feels he has not lived up to his wife’s expectations.
He feels ruined, unworthy of her now.
This quote gave this reader hope, for I know that he cares.
He is concerned about his wife's wellbeing, about what she thinks.
He is humble, and unassuming.
It makes him more handsome and desirable.
I am cheering for him to write to his wife now.

When my fingers touch your skin,it is of the soul I hunt
Not just of my own but to feel your curves thrash
To smell your scent, fragrance of emotions entangled in web
I sat and I gaze at the beauty before my eyes
Not just in form does it exist but my heart I find flutter
The love I find in one I find also depths of my soul
I feel lost, incomplete, wanting what I can not touch
The distance as if the whole universe a journey away
Love's Desirable Lust, feeling you eating at my emotions
Devouring my every need I long the hours
Your curves my mind plays wildly insane
Wanting to kiss your lips softly, your scent upon my being
Our bodies passion exploding in wetness I feel you drip
I taste its swEeeet'ness of your flavor, enticing yes
My lips you feel gently upon your neck
Your nerves tingle in enthusiastic need of desire
Screaming take me, I am yours to do what you wish
Conquer my love as thou would conquer the world
King of my domain, queen at your beckon need
Pleasure the depths of my soul darkness that I love
not another but the one I love forever its bond not be broken

Once you were lush
Form sweet and ripe
Skin satin, elastic
All poreless and tight
Now bones are weak
Cracked, brittle and thin
Womb used and dry
No more collegan
Dismissed and discarded
As if aging a sin
Punished for wrinkles
That show where you've been
Old coins yield no currency
They're weathered and bare
You're transparent, invisible
Like you're not even there
But I know I have value
My wisdom has worth
I'm still viable, tangible
I still walk this earth
A new day is dawning
So let me join in
I still count, I matter
With less collegan

Desirable dawn
Silhouettes, shapes,
clouds backlit
by a distant sun
rising slowly
in the east
Cantaloupe swatches,
painting introductions
of a desirable dawn
Draping the sky,
illuminating my heart
to a brand new day
with you
Good morning Soupers

An extreme smog descends
on your eyes. A heavy haze envelops
the landscape. You watch the
world crumbling around you.
The death was very beautiful
thing, a moment before dying.
Becoming activist had contributed
towards the end; like
targeting yourself to be hanged.
The particulates pollution of
depression had seeped, and
Milky Way was asking, are you breathing ?
The fish now swims outside
the body. Death has many colours to celebrate.

Desirable News
By Franklin Price
7/29/2015
Desirable news, seen on TV,
always bad or seems to be.
Are ratings bad, if news is good?
Haven't tried that, maybe should.
Each of us can change that view.
Do something good that's just from you
Desirable news, made happily,
and not bad news that's on TV

I'll be waiting for you
I'll be missing you
Even if it's for a moment
Or even if it's forever
My heart in which is so strong
My heart in which hurts so much
From a moment without you
Or from a day without you
How much I will remember you
How much I will love you
Whether it comes from your memories
Or whether it comes from your heart
If you need me
If you demand me
I'll wait for you by a moment
Or I'll wait for you forever

You are fully committed...resisting my strong feeling;
I'm glad to admit a desirable sentiment
burns inside...your deep looks attract
and charm me as moonlight beams shining
under the prettiest stars,
but holding you is as impossible as reaching
the distant planet Mars...
would I ever want this sort of thing?
Every place I go you seem to follow me,
and that excites me more: to kiss those lips warmer than light,
to hold those passionate hands that someone touches at night;
isn't jealousy a tormenting feeling consuming me?
Oh, beautiful one meant for someone else;
the only consolation for me
is to whisper words that
hide a desirable sentiment
I've tried to express in sentimental ways
without considering the impossibility.

Your presence is like rose petals they are so soft and subtle they spread joy to my heart.
The feelings are like fire they just keep burning and keep me warm in the winter nights.
Your love is like the sun it shines brighter and brighter with a touch of the rainbow.
Your beauty is like the stars it keeps on glowing and I hope that our love keeps
overflowing.
Just to embrace is like the jewels the shine and glow.
Your sweetness is like a ripe fruit on a summer afternoon so yummy and tender.
The passion between us is undeniable to the point that I cannot fight it I want you even
more.
Every time that I am near you I melt this feeling is something that I have never felt.
This is a desirable beginning I hope the fire keeps on burning as the world keeps on
turning.

Thine will, my desire, lady so fine,
These days without your touch, are cruel.
These nights without you, I devour wine.
Your quest my desire, within thine rule,
My heart and soul, torn apart and ripped,
In private vigor, I await kiss.
My spirit defiled and ill equipped.
These times are vacant; your touch I miss.
Our sensual flamboyant desire,
Your eagerness, showering pleasure,
As I hold you close, I feel such fire.
Our moments together hold measure.
My ardor is real, yours surely true.
I humbly await one glimpse of you.

Before flowers and hugs made you happy,
and every evening you waited for my arrival,
and lovingly asked me, " How was your day, darling? "
Your old age age doesn't have those thrills anymore as when life was yours;
today, vanished is that radiant face: now, it only shows ugly spots and wrinkles...
a curse of the flesh, and no tenderness can console you for that tragic loss!
Why be less beautiful and desirable?
no woman ever loses her unique beauty, it is alive in her admirer's memory;
it's in the tender words she speaks to her captured man, who changed her destiny!
Sweetheart, accept my yellow roses with the same joy you demonstrated yesterday;
never doubt my faithfulness, and whisper to yourself, " He loves me not! "
Try to smile...and instantly you will look much younger than you ever felt!
Why be less beautiful and desirable?
We sealed our fate with the oath of fidelity, giving life to a promise never to be broken;
our sky was of the deepest blue and no other dream ever compared to that one!

The beating of my heart
Makes me feel alive
The way my eyes meet his
Makes me feel like I have wings
The way my hands go through his luscious blonde hair
This feeling is more than neutral
The way your lips attaches upon mine
The feeling is something that could pierce through my heart
And the true meaning of life and love releases and become clear to me.
This feeling is addicting
Its makes me want more.
Why would I want it?
I never wanted it before
I dreamt about it
I got curious
But now it’s done
I want more
Why?
Is it because
I may not ever get it again
Especially from him
Or
Could be a desire that my body wants
For some people
The desire is Sex
Or maybe it’s Meth
Mine,
Its love
Or maybe what happens during love
The kissing
The desire to combine two lips
But why
I don’t understand
The Blonde
His hair,
His presence
I don’t even think about it
I only think of him
Its amazing how that works out
So
Is the desire him?
Or the next step?
