Possession Is This The foaming sea caressing And filling the wind hewn cavern Unasked and without mercy The ashy volcanic froth pursuing And engulfing every living thing Before searing and burning it into submission The snakes’ jaws bearing upon its prey Squeezing lifeless the unknown A boulder crushing an ant In an instant of nothingness My love for you Consuming my soul Held between every beat of my heart Being expelled from my lungs With every waking and sleeping breath My mind pulsating with thoughts Of your every move Bursting through my fingertips When I touch your skin The heat of your smile The scent of your desire Is with me Every moment I exist This Is Possession Jon Mewett [This message has been edited by Jon Mewett (edited 07-30-2000).] |

if possession is 90% of the law then this one rates a 100. Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

I like it. I really do. I love the intro and the conclusion. Love, Stephanie Lafleur "Can anything be sadder than work unfinished? Yes: work never begun." ~Christina Rossetti |

WOW!  Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau" |
