Edges.
When I see edges,
lilliputian or leviathan
precipices propel
vascular trepidations;
apprehensions that inform
fleeting shadow images,
of unspoken harkenings ---
unexpressed exhilaration,
unreleased tensions,
desires and terrors.
And now your skull,
shoring your ineffable
unrelenting loveliness,
spills over edges,
cascades of Egyptian cotton.
In candled shadows
I can not but see
where I as appendage,
tumescent and engorged,
seek and explore
your throat,
resolving trepidations
into our trance of passions.

The rules were opened ended yes! Love the second stanza!! Not sure about the repeating of 'edges' 3 times in the first few lines. But overall love the intensity of this.

Darell, thank you for stopping by and your kind comment. this one was thrown together quickly to honor Jax... quickly because she is beloved and her contests fill so rapidly. Don't know that I am content with it, but we will see what another few readings tell me.
Thank you again for gazing.
