Lucid Absinthe



careless wires slash patterns, barbed -
meld moments pure as dregs
thrust purpose and boyish hips reluctant to wetness
across the threshold of measured shadow

the slow squeak of warm oiled cheeks
perfumed like wild lavender spread profuse


               glide... a little more this way
easy-going as gentle's voice
tangled flesh sucks deep

                 grind... harder
bodies move like limpid specters
passing through truth's frenzy
and raw moaning, cavernous as dark absinthe

pushed to the verge

            fuck me... he carved, deep in stone
as if in a dream, an aftershock
sticky with emotions
(but said it so much better out loud)

harder babe -  fuck
advance your flame-thrower lyrics
crude as blue fire-ice

                      deep me inside... me

    This was an interesting poem for me. It went from sensual, to erotic, to rather funny in the end: "advance your flame-thrower lyrics". I don't know...that just made me smile. Definitely worth the read

    This poem demonstrates both why profanity has a place in poetry, and why it should be used with care...after the rest of the poem, the line:

    fuck me
    he carved, deep in stone

    has so much power.
    Kudos to you for this.

    incredible

    "bodies move like limpid specters
    passing through truth's frenzy
    and raw moaning"

    wow, wish I hadn't been away for so long. You have only improved. and every word still penetrates each layer of skin and lodges itself somewhere in your heart.

    see what a little lighting, a sugar cube, a leaky spoon and a snicker of absinthe can do when you're suffering from delerium? gripping poetry - when it's not slipping between slippery finger...

    "across the threshold
    of measured shadow"

    *gulp*

    *whimpers*

    *tiptoes quietly away, stunned as usual...yet...
    in a completely different manner*
