there was an abundance of possibilities a caricature with overdone brushstrokes you were fashioned by master of his art your clear-eyed blue eyes stared at me your voice, seethed with lust, spoke to me as soothing as hummingbird wings you arrested me in that moment of desire I was stripped bare of whatever soul I had you greedily took me and enjoyed my flesh your fingers drew blood circles on my back I was helpless to resist; your craving was mine you stopped your manipulations and said to me Honey, would you bite this apple just for me? ©July 2, 2016 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Lost in the Garden of Eden. We have all been there, my friend. |
