Persephone�s Advice

Persephone’s Advice

Listen, listen, listen:
Nothing is more pleasurable
To a woman
Than to be
Skillfully awakened
By adept lover in
Circuitous route

Slowly, slowly, slowly:
In the bare skin
Of moonlight
With cascading fingers
Of liquid tendrils
Enticing treasure
With the exhale of breath

Softly, softly, softly:
Let her continue
In the in between of
Sleeping and waking
The milky manner of dreams
The fragile flower
Pale petals unfold

Careful, careful, careful:
A lion waits for
Your supplication
In the unraveling knot
Of the thigh’s bloom
Crouched and ready
To devour you, deliciously

What a wonderfully beautiful poem and I agree whole-heartedly with it. Brilliant work. Going in favorites. :)

You have given men a peak into the nature of a woman's desire. The question is will men listen? Alas, very few. Indeed the mystery is there in your words. Very good balance throughout the whole of it.

Oh my God, your poem is so subtly erotic, you choice of words was exquisite and it is oh, so, true. What a wonderful poem, thanks for writing.

[Rambling Prose]

The imagery in this piece is amazing. Your precise choice of words drew my mind's eye into this tantalizing phantasm.
