Talk of the Ages

Fingers led

down your back

nails biting into your skin

as your masochism

arises

with your pheromones

a sweet delight

amidst the incense,

the candles ember

bleeding, waxing poetic

upon your skin

as you begin

to shake

before my words

releasing that tension

we felt building

amidst galleries,

wine, calamari

and the talk of the ages.

very nice weave of the romantic and sadistic. the trusting and erotic play of pain and sensation.

i love this. could relate to many sides of it. it had a sort of classic elegance and yet also a play on words naughtiness that was entertaining as well.

"waxing poetic" made me smile. drip drop. yes?

the thing i really enjoyed about this poem is that i didn't finish it with a clear cut idea of what exactly was meant.... you left it open to interpretation.

thank you.

Oh, this one is a delight. Seems like the two were predestined to meet having done so throughout the ages...there is that fatalistic thing about it that makes this piece divine...

[Crystal Kelly]

I really enjoyed this poem. Very talented.

[Tate Morgan]

a tapestry of emotion and joy

[Dan Bullock]

Very beautifully sensual and feeling myself dragged into the moment, as always, with a caress of a touch :)

[Lee E. Powell]

I loved the imagery here! Very cool

[Forest Green]

Excellent, delightful and imaginative moments...the candle is a perfect touch.

Very true to your form and truly inticing...

Wonderful work...

Love was and will be the talk of the ages...

Um, I like calamari, kind of chewy though. I love seafood, especially batter fried fantail shrimp and scallops. Sounds like the beginnings of an evening full of naughty fun. Great little poem you've penned here.

I like the imagery in this. Beautiful done and such a wonderful end to a wonderful evening. :)

...and the talk of the ages go on forever without any pause or hiatus. It is life. Just relish it with good sense of feeling. I like it. Yet, another good poem illustrated with full ornaments and simplicity.

Thank you.
