Classic, classic L......... Where do I go with this? You are a perfect cup of coffee! Your words are so smooth and it just flows like silk. Your poetry is silk! It's so smooth and intelligent. I know your work from jump. You wouldn't even have to put your name on it. It would just pour onto my screen and I'd know!
Stripping you of the superficial garments that hide
~The man behind the mask
Lay your mind down for soothing, and rest
I am going to pour myself onto you like
Hot wax,
So that you can feel,
My fleshly
Intensity, and know I am real
The silkiness of my core
Will make your stature shriek,
Crying out to me, for more
I want to show
You,
my love,
just how I fit you, like a glove
I've read this poem probably every day for about a week and a half, and I still feel ill-equipped to even review it as it is sooo effortlessly perfect. Beautifully written.
I wish Bridgey hadn't ganked the silk simile, 'cause that's where I was going. I did read it aloud, and I felt your words more clearly for it. I am very glad every time I find one of your poems in my requests. I know I'll read something that day that will touch me. Publish a book already, Love. The world needs to see this.
I read it out loud and oh my gosh I almost shed a tear. This was soooo delicate and beautiful and very sexy! The flow was pitch perfect and I love how you broke up the lines. Girl you know you can write! Thank you for sharing :-)

Burning down the house 2: Sensuality contest - Ha, this one has depth to it so I will take my time with this review. 3 French Kisses when I read the title I thought it was going to be about the sensual art of french kissing, well I found myself reading out loud as you suggested in your notes which helped me find the spoken flow of your poem and I imagined someone saying this to me and I realized very quickly that kiss isn't the only thing that would have been one, for you would have captured hearts. Like how you repeated "I am perfect for you" through out the poem and even did follow ups to it, like
"Let me, undress you with my librettos
that will shield and clothe
Your vulnerabilities,
No one but I, will see
With my deepest
Feelings,"
Now what man wouldn't love to be able to be accepted while being vulnerable? Then you support him with the trust of knowing only you will know this vulnerable side of him. Very nice addition to this piece.
I believe anyone who is great at the art of sensuality and seduction has to have high confidence that they can deliver the goods behind their words, I love this part of your poem...
"After time, and more time passes
You by,
What is meant for your mind,
soul, and body
is no longer in the sky
I am perfect for you
in every way,"
First I like that you reversed the order of body and soul bringing the soul first, it made it less of an over used term. Second the confidence in this statement is just sexy.. LOL Indirectly it is saying that the guy will no longer have to look to the sky or heaven as I took it because the woman is perfect for him in every way like a Goddess should be..
This was really really good.. Thank you for entering this gem I love it not only for the talent you display but for the depth of it, it spoke to my mind ... Bravo~
