Our Sharing
The fact of our discussing
anything at all to the nth degree
is enough for me.
Nakedness is a state
of lacking the self-consciousness
of over-thinking
whether to continue our talk
until a later hour;
what we are doing
is what I came to do
and to be talking
deeply and intimately
is to make love.
Rather than getting you
to talk longer
so that I
can trace the line
and find the coordinates
of your location,
my line of inquiry
resolves itself
into the need
to talk
and be about
the art of disclosure,
the unclasping of your bra
or flippant tossing panty lost
into a darkened spread
between the bed
and wall
are all unnecessary
in that as we talk
my mind is filled
with every sense
of ecstasy
as we merely speak
of that which plays
about your mind.
Our candid speaking
as we overhear
the family at the next table
is no less sensual
than the moments spent
before the display case
revealing sub-species
interrelationships
or large arrays
of gem stone crystals
laid out in black lights.
In every case,
I shall be
about the cause
of glancing
at your eyes
to see the subtle
fluctuations
of your radiant
observations
checking to see
if you are as aroused
as I am by
the majesty of being.

i'm a lil obsessed..
In your talent
i revel
visualize
sucking the wise
Out of your
skilled device
one of a kind
that
in genius mind
of yours
running its course
in madness
lyrical havoc
sprayed in waves
a mental madman haze
i'm crazy for you
down on all fours
i
crawl
across the floor..
give
you
the
best
of
this
whore
touch your mental
essential
demented
credentials
until we feast undone
Then...
i
shall
bathe
in
your
cum

SMART MEN
You cannot be sexy and stupid
At least not for me
Do not be a fool, for I am cruel
With those who I deem unfit
You may think a perfect body
Is the lure for women
But have you considered
Your brain may need exercise too?
Your pigmentation does not matter
Nor your looks which will be gone
You do not need your doctorate
Intelligence is damn attractive alone
So woo me with clever words
Make me dizzy with physics
Waltz with me to the galaxy
Where IQ and EQ = Sexy You!
let’s not fuck around
pretending you’ll get my attentions
if the hips don’t meet the tits
in that way that wets my lips
but you’ll need too
it’s true
brains
the good kind
to work up the front of a boat
when the wind and rain are flying sideways
and not need eyes on you
to help work through why the halyard is stuck
just work it out
for fucks sake
the kind of mind
that knows how too roll
in any kind of company
all the way from the mayor
to the guy who spits on his car
both of whom
are friends of mine
you need to be a woman who can glue a room together
can play with fools
make ‘em flail and fall
if it comes to that
'cos it does
some days
need you sharp
need you paying attention
need you to look into a blocked drain
on a wet day
and know the crow-bar
will be just the thing
to move the rock
that’s blocking the pipe
that’s under the road
that’s washing away
need a thinker
for drinkin’ with
need honesty
but not so much
it leaves you stupid
or cruel
you’re smart
you’ll work it out
after that
well
the rest is as simple as knowing
when the big V8 is playing up
and just needs nursing home
can’t stand
can’t abide
will not fuck with
a women too dumb
too be good
too my car
pretending you’ll get my attentions
if the hips don’t meet the tits
in that way that wets my lips
but you’ll need too
it’s true
brains
the good kind

when the wind and rain are flying sideways

Sapio Sentiments by mikimoondancer
My sentiments hang loosely
as my alpha waves slow down
I'm as sure as tomorrows' coming
that my mood won't turn around
Then I hear it, like an echoed repose
words that dip into the flora of my minds' inner core
He's just venting-arguing with the news
but there's something in the way he resurrects me
with his views
He's handsome, and his physique holds my stare
but his thought process and intellect
stimulate and -take me there...
To heated,
make me ache to move closer
To feel the air reverberate as his syllables touch my earlobe
Neural pathways, synapses start sparking
drenched in dopamine mixed with serotonin madness
My wetness, growing external...
inundated by the ignition of my internal
Keep talking...
Explore my cerebral extensions
I can get there, and back
just by hearing your intentions
