Does Seduction start in the mind

Press play and let the music wash over you as you read if you are on a laptop.

Salute.

Do words have such powers to seduce the mind?

Do all well-executed seductions start with
the engagement of poetry within the mind?

Are the days of sending love letters redundant?

Salute.

I dreamt of faraway lands

Where blues bands

Always played

And as I held you firmly by the waist

As I felt you so close as your fast-beating

pulse raced

Feeling you

Pressing into me

Your so inviting sweet

Tempestuous tasting gate

I slowly whispered

Do you want to cry to the

Dark skies

To walk with me as your host

Whistling melodic sounds

In union

As we walk trapped in a never-ending reunion

For me

To reclaim once again

which was once mine

Foretold in the early morning stars

And as I again

Slowly

Tickle that pulsating pink diamond

Twinkling

Just hidden beyond

The fleshy folds of your mind

You whispered

Will you once again

Be mine

Conquer

All the new tributaries

Of my body in time

To own me

Totally and reach

New unexplored emotions

Of the divine

As I stand here

Still dreaming

In the shadows

Just

Watching 

Waiting and listening

As you climax mentally

To my well executed

Rhymes

As your beautiful eyes glisten

This thought always lingers

Is that the power of words

To seduce minds

By all that is written

Carefully composed by a conductor with such passionate fingers
