If Words was a person

 

(A lone voice whispers)


Will you let me seduce your mind 


So I can then claim your body and soul


Forever 


No matter your age

Or where you end up or go


Let me bind you

To me eternally


With lascivious dark words


Like the Lady in White 

In the Story of O


Till your soul salivates and weeps


And in delicious submissive anticipation 


Begs and pleads for more


As its tears flow like wet snow


Let me devour your true inner reflection through your windows to the soul


With wild unconditional written or spoken ravishing excitement



As I wake your higher-self suddenly 


From its repetitive  mundane mind sleep



Let me take you so damn deep


To strange new apocalyptic wetlands and yellow beaches 


Or mystical shores of unexplored crimson heat


And then let my hidden strong fingertips 


Trace pagan pictures of intimate unions


Across your succulent exposed minds spine



Mon Cheri


Will you give me all those deep salacious thoughts


You keep chained up


Under strict locks and keys


Forever compartmentalised and confined 


In dark well-hidden places 


Where nobody can see their faces


For written words dressed up so dramatically like me


Can bring such raw visceral power


And all we from The Hidden Side crave is a fresh virgin mind


A mind willingly to sacrifice everything they once knew 



To then be gently or vigorously deflowered


As we use and abuse their imagination


Inviting them to explore new or old undulating orgies of sweaty letters 


Filled with naked stripped back verbs


For we help the newly initiated and probably you too


By running our sweet fingers across your cerebral cortex's many pink curves



As we cast a hypnotic spell



For we are the real kings and queens 


Of all known empires

Past and present


In mortal or spiritual realms



If you're willing to be dominated and mounted


It's no good running scared


Mon Cheri


Just let us in


For we're everywhere and you my true love


Are surrounded
