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.

This was a wonderful composition. I adored how easily this was flowing and absolutely loved this ending "amidst galleries,

wine, calamari

and the talk of the ages." ---hmmm this is true poetry, what makes me feel that I am a part of this game. Terrific writing.

You have just discribed a wonderful and romantic moment. Lovely thoughts indeed.

this is an interesting poem. It's slow, abstract and almost casual but it also manages to have this huge sense of grandeur and impact that sends you flying back in your seat. good stuff.

Very romantic poem. Sahring dinner, wine and talking throught the night.
You've written this with so much clearity. Your choice of words tell the story with out being too wordy. The feeling of a pleasant and satisfying date is evident in your words. Excellent write.

ya just have to love those pheromones! A very enjoyable read, what man would not cherish such a love note? So suggestive yet just enough so.

Very sensual work!!
