Smooth testosterone glaze glides rhythmically
Just centimeters under
Tight damp covering
Hiding but not concealing
The glistening squeeze of warm male.
Between pillars of dangerous
And the rumble of protective leadership
The hunger wants,
Masticates, schemes, plots,
And plans satisfaction
In between.
While on stand-by -
Swish, swish,
The wiper blades clear the panes
Looking out
The man
And the machine
Anticipate.

Very thought provoking
A very interesting take on the prompt and I liked it

wow...I find this one a bit strange and unusual, depicting a dark nature, and a dangerous one.
despite that, I can't deny that it's very well written. I would love to know your thoughts behind this one. -

It was not meant to be sinister, but honest about men's nature to be - so much of the time - on the prowl. I played with the word in the first grouping so that actually, they, each in a different way could discribe a man, in a powerful car, in the rain, waiting for a woman. No other part of the reasons is given, leaving the reader to fill in their own blanks. I like a poem to stretch the imagination and thought of a large diversity of readers. I hadn't thought of the negative aspects that this could bring to mind. My preference would be along the lines of: all that masculinity channeled into bringing incredible happiness and fulfillment to the female being courted. But, my primary want, here, as with all the poems I write, would be that a poem that I had written, was meaningful, to the reader, both intellectually as well as emotionally. Not that the reader agrees with my expressed views, but that it makes them think, and perhaps even, makes them read it again.
