My friend, this bleeds before my eyes. Seduction is an insult to my imagination. well, left out in the cold there is no telling where the imagination is bound go...slip sliding down to that oil based hot tub perhaps.
Now, Le Freak on repeat may be ging just a bit too far I think...oh the thought...I think my mind might explode sending my imagination to an old shut down disco on the east side.
Still I get this and it hits home...on that empty street where doorbells have been outlawed and that's not a knock on anyone.
Very cool my friend.

This came from a part of my psyche that is not easily accessed, which is unfortunate because it appears to be the part that people most like to visit, myself included. Hedonism was safe in the disco era, but must be handled with the utmost care within my imagination. Glad you enjoyed this one my friend.

more to this than carbon to skip cylindrical patterns on with an ebb groove needled by seismographic pops of this earth shaking inspired piece..excellent

Well I'm seduced! lol
You have a way with words my friend..yes you do!
On here, you have schooled the pragmatic...taking an artistic approach to chillaxing with some classic vinyl tunes...
The last two stanzas have me on my toes... I'm thinking YES! ;)

The thing I enjoy the most about your writing, Steve, is the variation. You have the ability to take your readers on a journey, from start to finish, and do it so beautifully through your imagery. I not only read, but feel, the vast array of emotions you portray in each heartfelt piece. So please never under estimate your ability to touch lives through your words. You have a God given gift, pen on!

I lack confidence when it comes to writing as well as other aspects of my life. Oftentimes I even have someone read before I post, just so if it's bad, only 1 person sees it, lol.

I do love all your well spelled contradictions my friend, they always are "it seems" in fight lol...
For that makes this so brilliant, as a piece of poetry. Your questioning is fantastic. The music is fantastic... at 3.24, I can hear why Biggie Smalls. was inspired ;-) with Hypnotize... :) " Seduction is an insult to my imagination and my imagination makes a mockery of my intentions" Yes! true! Always be as clever as you are, and stay out of all the mean/gossips/turmoil, as you really know better. (you don't have to be a sensitive person for that, just a wise one". :) xoxo

It's wonderful to see you as variate as you are in each and every writing you come up with, for I do love variety as you know. And I think this one is worth the effort. I know your questions are varietive too, for as they would be all on the same level, it definitely get's boring. I'm lame tonight, I know... ha! I just woke up at 3.24 lol, my absolute ears failed me. LOL. I'm proud of your not-exaggerating personality, for as far as I can concern, it's one of the wisest. Thanks to you Steve. :) xoxo

Always a pleasure being able to make you laugh :D xo
A entertaining and lucid write. The last stanza displayed a skill all poets should possess. Dare to challenge the imagination of your reader. You did that beautifully. A fine write and read. Great work. :)
Hahaha. This is as confused and contradictory a response to a sexual fantasy as I`ve read in a long time, Steve....and I love it! Why, I don`t know, but it reminds me of that old Aussie joke about the farmhand who hits town after six months in the Outback, walks into the empty bar, downs three Fosters, then asks the barmaid "Hey Sheila, d`you f..k?" and she replies "Well not normally, Bruce...but as you`re such a sweet talking b*****d....." Well done, mate. P.

Haha thanks so much Pete...that joke brought a smile to my face :)
Im not sure if its intended but the emotion in this is heavy but hard to distinguish whether or not its passion, love, shame, resentment....maybe a combination of many? Either way you open the mind to ponder on this one. Its very thought provoking and your word selection is brilliant. Thank you for sharing and being such a poetic inspiration.

Such a strong, effective and powerful write that brought out so much emotion and though! I loved the way that you can always take the reader on a journey, and it's like your write is a movie playing on my screen. (: It was great, bud!
