This nefarious night
beckons a side of me
that longs for the touch of your intellect.
Morphing me
into something far more worthy.

This, the dark night
screams for you to teach me
of things I never knew.
Things of skin against skin
slick with the perspiration
of lustful greed.

A lust born from your eyes
with the knowledge that leaks forth
in the form of peaceful resolution.
Knowing this is more
than the primal thrust
of urgency and selfish need.

It is a merging
of two negative forces
begot from the loins of a world of wounds
inflicted by forked tongues.

Two negatives
that remit a light
on this, a nefarious night.

Karen...lol..yes a conception for sure, especially for me.

Ron... different? yes..but it was inspired.

Michele...thank you muchly!

Donna...exactly...much.

Dixie...lol..it was a new word for me, the person that spoke it had to tell me what it meant, then I promptly said, "I like it, I am going to use it."

Wow..love this one Susan!
I know that need of which you speak..
It's one that is really hard to explain..
but, you described it perfectly.
Hugs lovely lady~

Well this just flat out rocks!
I loved and so understand the truth your first verse speaks of....that connection of minds is as intense as one of physical...
and yepppers... that nefarious allit rocks too.

very very cool poem Susan.

Ever go back and review your old stuff?  you know you do...

This one leaves me shaking my head now...I remember what and who it was about and I am back now to say that intellectual connection alone doesn't fill the glass..

It is impossible to get everything you need from one person.

That is what I have learned.
