One Woman

Hello All, 

I think this poem speaks volumes with-out my adding another word. 

One Woman

Lust overwhelms me

The curve of her thigh

Quick breathless movements 

The thrill of her lies

Her deft nimble fingers

Loose frenzied hair

the flick of her tongue

As her scent fills the air

Drinking in her moistness

Our bitter sweet taste

My heavy set heart

As she now leaves in haste

My arms hanging empty

As I replay our sin

How swollen my lips

She’s retreats back to him

Addictive her essence

Seductive her touch

As one woman to another

Am I wanting too much?

In my waking moments 

In crowds I’m alone

I day-dream of her

To make her my own

This dark raven beauty

Spell casting her art

I’m since duty bound

To lift her my heart

Defile Me

Hello Again, 
My second post of the day and possibly not the last. 
The following poem is a powerful reflective piece for me. Life has not always been kind, but life has also offered many healing and helping hands. To all who will feel this poem deeply. Remember that you are not alone and reaching out is the only way forward. 



Defile Me

Victimless crimes for the faceless? 
Voices scream in silent retort
Repulsion felt deep in reflective thought
Try harder and the coward will abate
Stay still and the pounding will stop
Defiling my temple ceaselessly
Love! A meaningless foible
Forgiveness! Your token need
My body will mend, my will... shattered
I am strength, as I remain
You the caitiff, as you transgress
Tis’ your penance to bask in my valour
Your impotence that breeds the abuse

A Yearning

Good Afternoon, 
There are many things for which we yearn. Some physical others material, possibly emotional and more. That for which we yearn, is often not what we receive. 

A Yearning

Deep need fills you... A yearning

Enveloping your resistance... A burning

Resolve melts away... A weakening

Chaotic mind... A sequencing

That carnal appetition... A resurrection

One cold touch... A perception

Lust lunges out... A surge

You resist... A purge

Man Cave

Hello Again, 

My second poem of the day. Dedicated to a good man and friend. 

Let me know what you think?!

Man Cave

When they look in your studio what do they see?

A man cave, a haven, a male sanctuary?

Beyond the words, the pranks and that green

Dwells his complexity that few will have seen

Of mammoth intellect, learned out of pain

In passion within him held by tight reigns

A man grown of life lessons, hurts and joy

Rooted foundations… from a once wild boy

Deep in his man cave where no one can spy

That cave like a shell he shoulders so high

He screams, he laughs, he shouts and he plays

Here he is safe with the leeches a bay

Caverns like this aren't structures man made

They’re held buried with us to contain all the rage 

So deep in his man cave his dulcet tones ring

This man of men and the guidance he brings

Empty Chalice

Good Evening, 
The creative juices now flow. 
My poem today is a very private one… so I will let you take from it what you will and say nothing more. 


Empty Chalice

When all is finished 

The chalice laid bare
No replenishing liquid
Just cold empty cares

This empty vessel
Still here remains
Devoid of fulfilment
But filled with disdain

Bold Contradictions

Hello All, 
Been a while!

The following is a poem about the contradictions in us all. As we impart who and what we are on others. We often don't see our own
complicated ways. It is a beautiful thing to be unique.

Bold Contradictions

In the silence the deafening noise

There in darkness waiting poised

In the light the shadow there cast

Reaching far to cover your past

In the smile that hides the frown

All that is buoyant slowly drowns

In deep hate suffers burning lust

Stopping you, knowing you must

In stillness pounds a beating heart

For all of you is barley one half
