Premium Member Fly vs Elephant

It takes little time to unzip a fly.
It's quickly done, on the first try. 
But you'll wonder where your life all went
if you unbutton an elephant.

edges loosen, names unbutton themselves, and every meaning wanders off~ a quiet migration of once-certain things into the softness of becoming

Premium Member For talking too much in class, we've buttoned your lip

For talking too much in class, we've buttoned your lip.
If the teacher does ask you to talk, here is a little tip.
You unbutton your lip just like a button on your shirt.
The first few times, you may feel a little hurt.
So be gentle, so your lip ~ doesn't rip.

Raped I Am

Raped
Word by word
Thought by thought
Unbutton the robe; you look good
Take out the veins and blood itself; you look amazing
Break the bone to pieces and squeeze out the marrow;
You look beautiful
Bare and naked
Thought by thought
Word by word
Raped I am

The Fragile Person

Heavy rain outside,
your door is closed.
He is waiting out there,
soaked in the storm, counting time.

You’d open the door
and welcome him.
You’d wipe his head and face
with your fingers of love.

And when you unbutton his shirt,
you’d notice—
he is fragile from inside,
his little heart broken into tiny pieces.


Too Far Gone

imperfections tucked into tight jeans
insecurities under the soft blouse
fragility walking in stiletto heels

knowing....
when you light the candles...
when you unbutton the silk shirt...
when you lay me down...

enraptured....
you will be too far gone to see
the mars and freckles of my make-up
the blemishes from my past

Grape Symphony

beneath each heavy bough
the musk of grape vines
heavy droplets
as we lift them 
large grapes 
hang from the arbor
scent the air
as I unbutton you
warm hands
kissing feels again like grape skin
your lips are ripe
male scent released into the night
cry out
in deeper tones than mine
forever love will have the scent of grape vine musk
and you

Speak

Unbutton your lips, let your voice sing out.
Stand strong in its music, it is your own.
Shout your convictions, let all hear your tone
Declare 
Proclaim
Condemn 
Speak up. Speak out. Speak.
Don’t ignore your sisters’ cry
Don’t sit silent while your brothers die
Use your voice as an instrument of change
Do not be shushed, do not be shamed
Silence is not golden, it’s invisible.

One Night

One Night.

The door bell,
Unlocked, 
Foot steps,
And a hug from a  back.

The whisper, 
Name,
Hands on my hip.
Make me turn around.

Face, red,
Hands around neck,
A play with hair,
And unbuttoned shirt.

Hand at face,
Eyes met,
Full of love,
With smile.

Soft lips,
warm breath,
A play,
Hot.

The flowing heat,
Trembling body,
Uncontrolled legs,
Making love.

Premium Member Mama Warned Her

She expected very little from the guy
  A lesson she had learned long ago
     Guys are after just one thing
             It always started
               With just one
                     Kiss
               Then look out
          For wandering hands
      He would unbutton her top
  Then next he would remove her brasier
She was so excited...she could hardly wait !

Speaking Walls

If walls could speak,
we would have reached a peak
of astonishment on what happens
behind our backs.

We would be knowing our stalkers’ faces,
gossips of our friends, hidden tears,
and those who secretly unzip and unbutton
each other, engulfed in the flame of desire…

We would have no more secrets to pocket
deep in our hearts, if walls spoke about
our real selves, when we thought that no one
was watching.
