The Lady known as V


 (A lone voice whispers)

Press play before reading. Salute.



Did you know your carefully rendered words

Still replenish me with a wild sense of sensuously driven lightning filled energy

A delicious fleshly tumbler of much sought after dark pleasure

I lust to just kneel at your divine altar

To pray and worship

To wantonly drink and to get lasciviously drunk from

For you are the preordained one

Shall I take a sip from your aromatic almond cup

As you beg and plead in this silent darkness

To ecstatically and relentlessly come

Are all these tantalising contrived words

Just like a slow dance

A willingly entered into Tango

A converging synthesis of submissiveness and dominance

To peak in an explosive crescendo and eventual climax

That will create a tsunami of dopamine symphonies within the mind and shaking body

That can't be really bought by any amount of greenbacks

We sometimes unwillingly hide and run from

Is it why I just return to read or listen to your exquisitely well-written rhymes

Every heartbreaking time

As you ignite something mythical and magical in me

That gloriously transforms as its ball of sensual magic

Notoriously shines
