Gigolo

Inspired by Norah Jones~I've Got To See You Again

you danced through me like a flamenco dancer on crack

was like a dream on fire in tangos tempo

i was addicted to the heat, had to see you again

sultry nights when i'm all alone i think of you

i've watched you smokin' in my mind

you move over me with clockwork precision

i won't share you in my head, 

dark bedroom orbs beckon my wanton desires

i touch your skin, its tautness unrelenting

i can't help myself you're like a toxic elixir

your dark shadow matches those in my closet

the warning signs are there, your eyes tell a story that's old

probably told hundreds of times in silly girl's reminiscence

yet, they're playing our song... take a chance on me

with background lyrics harmonious in my head

'I can't help myself.... I've got to see you again'

[Foxemerald]

This poem takes traditional ideas and places them into a stylistic and classy rendition, seen through your uniquely refined vision. Its story speaks to the commoner in a fashionably sexy manner, with a great deal of hot-blooded rhythm and exciting movement. There are many different details, literary techniques, and dynamics. It is simplistic but complicated, and an overall great read.

You're too kind Foxemerald, thanks so much.

Those people who make us want to be fearless and wild. We need a few in a lifetime. I enjoyed the story in the poem and the desire to repeat the dance. No weakness in the excellent poetry.

Fearless and wild are a good thing sometimes, yes, thanks for your thoughts Coyote.

I often wonder how this is how girls feel about idiots they fall in love with...well I don't wonder it so much now as I did in my school years...for now I just revel in the poetry of the sublime Mrs.R ;)

[Frieda P]

Woo, you know I love that word sublime, thanks Benji! ;-)

[kublakhan27]

Haha I'm good at bringing up words that you love, am I not? ;) Anytime Mrs.R :)

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

It's like you wrote it about me - fabulous!

[Frieda P]

Lol Thomas, now you sound like Cyntax. Yes, it's about you. ;-)

[Jibey]

an old story indeed.... told with a certain pathos that stirs the heart...

but I don't think you meant 'it's tautness' ... :-)

[Frieda P]

Yeah I did Jibey ;-)

[Frieda P]

Lol, my Achilles heel, I wasn't thinking along the lines of those kinds of conjugations. ;-)

[Jibey]

Good girl!

[Horizon K.]

ohh fantasy man... haha... love it!... and the imagination can play these scenes out so well, the intricate details of every shared glance and mesmerizing touch... only sometimes the fantasy is a thousand times better than reality will ever be... i think we all live in these fantasies at times:)

[Frieda P]

Wow, how true is that most of the time, thanks for your thoughts here Horizon. :-)

[redflutterby]

Too many times has one felt as this to come to a banquet of love, but after the feast leave with the taste of sour grapes in the all of them! I have asked myself why someone couldn't have just put another song in the cue????

Your words are mesmerizing as is the video of Norah Jones. You have produced a great write to accompany the vibes of the words and music of her song.

[Frieda P]

Haha Shelia if only it were that easy?! Thanks so much, I can always depend on you for a smile and an interesting review. :-)

[sneer]

Style here eh, I'll have to keep my eyes on you.

[Frieda P]

Ha thanks for stopping by sneer.
