The Dance

On the edge of madness

and bliss

where I marinate

my heart swollen, teetering

flutters wildly on the cusp 

of a long awaited orgasm

panting stilted breath

through clenched teeth

clenched eyelids

furrowed brow

where I formulate

a regulated flow

dispensing passion

condensed to droplets

our fingertips touching

feather light upon my keyboard

where i can imagine

your eyes flutter back

closing around tiny bursts

your head tilted back

rolling salted honey

over a parched tongue

swallowing a sharp ray

of soft new light

  

soulful glances pregnant with intent

skim across rippling water

blow swift atop restless sand

swoon lofty and burrow

within folds, laid bare

inside places 

I cannot touch

without a pen

I get some sort of exchange of passion through a keyboard. The very last line though, seems to indicate something more, something deeper than a physical level ... a place where, perhaps only the words of a poem can reach. This is what I feel in these words.

[Kristina Moulaison]

You sound a little bit like a psychic seeing visions and divining meanings in this review, which makes me smile. Yes, I do have to say the first thing that pops into my head. :)

[Creepy Swine Guy]

Well remember, I am old ... slow of wit ... I am not always coherent.

[Kristina Moulaison]

You saw quite rightly. I was just charmed by your wording. I'm easily entertained.

[Charles D. Moorer]

Very, very nice. I love the flow, some lines are like butter, so smooth.

[Kristina Moulaison]

Thank you very much!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

yes, those places we can't touch without pen...and we only hope that person's heart will read us, and pick up his or her pen to reciprocate the touch.

you really are smooth in the flow of your words.

[Kristina Moulaison]

Yes! Thank you so much again.

[Chris]

A truth worth lauding... so much reality in this one.

[Kristina Moulaison]

Thank you Chris!

[Chris]

well it IS... when you speak freely with a person for...a timeless - well, you don't watch clocks - nor even think of them. you connect in ways unlike children in school or just bars, parties... you talk AND listen and you hear and get heard.
So it IS a truth worth lauding... and there IS so much reality in this one.

[Kristina Moulaison]

It's true...I see what you mean. You heard me well. :) What we all desire is to connect and it is harder to do just having a conversation, superficial as they mostly are. I prefer to express myself this way and have people feel what I mean. Poetry is great that way. Passion begs to come out, to be expressed, to have someone understand, to feel it with you.

this is one of those writes which grasps the reader by the logic and throws it out the window, replacing it with pure pleasure and abandon. i absolutely love this piece!

[Kristina Moulaison]

Thanks! I Love this review! That first sentence of yours made me very happy!

[quinfinn]
