Behappy - Bhairava

Truth, without your copes and cushions, A kind and compassionate cruelty. I'm not here to converse. Almost all writing is adapted from spontaneous vocal recordings

I write erotic, not to turn you on. I'm telling a story or bringing some glory to some tantric human. I only accept friendly comments, cause critique outside of a controlled environment is just insults.
