She wore her finest lichen lace With an inlaid ebony filligre At her décolletage Sandalwood scent invitations from her everyplace He pondered her pleasing possibilities Under his knowing hands And cutting edge He whetted at her intricacies Driftwood held her ground and his gaze Soaking in the whetting Of his stare Blowing smoke rings in a daze She was rooted in place Her burning desire Enflamed Glowed radiant on her face He engraved himself into her moss green eyes As he came toward her He was felled by her hollow So deeply ingrained with denials and lies |

you just get better and better at these... and I enjoy them... I see you use whetted twice, and might think of substituting another word for the second use.. |

I did that intentionally because that was what she was soaking in. I rarely ever repeat words... |

ah~~ well I often mistakenly repeat words and have to go back and "fix" them if I catch them... but like you I try to rarely repeat |

Wonderful imagery and expectations. You conjure up the most pleasing, but unorthodox words as you wander through your scenes. |
