Interlocking Devices

We are interlocking devices

     destined for designed integration.

     How positively pleasurable it is to fold

     you into me, and to have that full feeling.

     Your lanky arms laced amongst

     my stubbled legs with

     glitter toes pulled up and nestled in your lap.

We are leaned back and laughing.

     Sweetness, I swear

     no one could pry these slighted digits

     from your blossoming chest.

     Nor could any bright breeze

     whisk away the tender nothings my lips

     try to leave on your neck.

We are interlocking devices.

I like the words "Interlocking devices." You use them well in this poem. The description create a story of two people finding the right pieces to connect. A beautiful and outstanding poem. Thank you.

You had me at “glitter toes”. This is a very sweet poem and has a
playful quality I think lacks in so much poetry (sadly).

One thing felt akward to me and that was,
“you into me, and to have that full feeling”
Which I felt could be cut down to
“you into me, and to be full (or filled)”
[feeling just made the line a tad too long]

Other than that little suggestion I thought this poem was
Lovely, well written, and had great form.

“no one could pry these slighted digits
From your blossoming chest.” – WOW.

Wow really nice, and well written. Loved the emotion that flows from this piece, and the feelings it gives me.

mmm nice!

Romantic, beautiful. This poem creates a longing within me for a feeling that is so hard to find these days; security, love, solace.

This is adorable. It just makes me smile.

This is good! I like the concept of "interlocking devices" that you brought out. Two people so tangled up in each other, but they belong that way. Nicely written.

This is positively delightful. So delightful, in fact, that I want to say some inappropriate things. Very good things, but very inappropriate. It's romanticism, it's delicate and sounds like it should be read aloud in a whisper with a hint of a giggle. I love it. I picture you reading it to me. I hope you do.

Despite the seedy character of the man I know this is based on, this is written extremely well. I love when someone takes the other side of love -- not the "Needing to always be with the person" or the "passionate love-making", but the things you remember when you're alone in bed - the subtle moments that make that person more than a fling or a casual relationship. Extremely amazing, Kels.
