Uploaded with ImageShack.us cheap California burgundy gesticulating carelessly swirling dangerously in fine crystal longing to be supped, sipped, inhaled wobbling treacherously beyond the void I sweep my hand toward expensive perfume which fails to hide your animal sensuousness I sniff and wobble, wobble and sniff following a trajectory beneath a smudged moon sensing your animalistic nature and soul I know you're not satisfied in your restraint we talk politely offer each other suitable, though forced banter as we courteously speak it is our eyes perfidious holes, each sensing black depths of our souls even darker pleasantries of our past you realize I am but one more beastly shadow stalking your manicured turf we clink glasses in the superficialness of the night's blushing I'm almost angrily in lust staring at the enjoyable arch of your neck in the distorted yellow of the moon's smolder you lean into me asking for a kiss my mouth trembles understanding the night is ours time for flesh to consume flesh ©August 14, 2012 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |

Another very strong visual which could, indeed, span across time... -MVS You CAN make a difference, but first you should learn how: |

Sure Mark, my poem spans across time, of course it does. My work, my poetry are about 90% taken from reality of a life I have led in the past and the ten percent is from what I am going through today as I inch closer and closer to specter's crypt. ~*~ If they give you ruled paper write sideways. ~*~ |
