Jerk priorities
It's hard to miss
When its occurrence is rare
The gaps in between
Building unreasonable chemical pressures
A primal occupation of high surface areas
Suppressed so it remains trapped
In tissues congealing with fairness
Out of respect for your burdens
Understanding those unwitting gates
Imposed by corrupt hale walls
Not of your design
Yet caught in petty resentment
Comprehension failing to relieve
My gross desires
To be engulfed in your silken folds
A calamity contained and enacted
In my jerk priorities
When its occurrence is rare
The gaps in between
Building unreasonable chemical pressures
A primal occupation of high surface areas
Suppressed so it remains trapped
In tissues congealing with fairness
Out of respect for your burdens
Understanding those unwitting gates
Imposed by corrupt hale walls
Not of your design
Yet caught in petty resentment
Comprehension failing to relieve
My gross desires
To be engulfed in your silken folds
A calamity contained and enacted
In my jerk priorities

That Look
Call it interpretation of arrogance
When awareness is extended
Beyond typical self-indulgence
Thoughts held in that brief brush
Of soul portals
Whether it be in the glow of intoxication
Or the sober fluorescence of work space
Desires disclosed for the merest moments
Intentions raw and unfiltered
As gazes meet
Conveyed in cursory contact
Hot stomach tingling hunger
Dilation of pupils
Fingers flick hair and grace neck
Invitation by animal gesture
To be spirited away in languid blink
To leave rippling suggestion...

Beyond Flesh
In caress of curvature
Draw forth sweet chemicals
Flush with delight
At connection
Unending thrill in closeness
Feel warmth reach horizons
Where fleeting glimpses
Are caught in throaty encouragement
Love's turbulent mixture
Made aggregate
Salted with passion
Spun in drums of heart
Emotion like liquid colours
Bled and Pressed together
On absorbent sheets
From which we make our bed
Draw forth sweet chemicals
Flush with delight
At connection
Unending thrill in closeness
Feel warmth reach horizons
Where fleeting glimpses
Are caught in throaty encouragement
Love's turbulent mixture
Made aggregate
Salted with passion
Spun in drums of heart
Emotion like liquid colours
Bled and Pressed together
On absorbent sheets
From which we make our bed

Ply
Firm hands
Encase hips
Traverse soft thighs
Gently parted
Fingers and thumbs
Seek slick hunger
Solicit sighs
Manipulate pleasure
Perfect pressure
Persistent friction
Writhing crescendo
Your delicious release

Elsewhere
In another place, at another time
We shrug this shroud of circumstance
Indulge in our first timid touch and
Unbutton our withheld desires
Lips long stared at, finally meet
To speak all the things
For which there were no words
Silence joined by verdant heat
Hands bound by distance and caution
Press firmly across surfaces
Soliciting heart racing sighs
From touch long imagined, now realised
Bodies held by gravity
Float together in intermingled bliss
Exploring curves and soft skin
To find the perfect fit ...

Fourth World
You can have a mobile phone before food
You can have access to cigarettes before access to health care
You can have disease before immunisation
You can have a stealth bomber before a cure for cancer
You can see blood before a teacher
You can hold firearms before a child
You can taste ash before succulent steak
You can hear anguish before popular music
Surrounded by abhorrent opulence
We clutch desperately at empty things
Objects accrete in meaningless volume
Like numbers in a millionaires bank balance
I...

To the West
In Loving Memory of Mel Geyer (Ithilien) - prematurely taken.
In your many guises
Across world spanning webs
And tabletops
Your cheer and mirth was endless
You enhanced our journey
In our conquest of fantastical borders
And exploration of galactic frontiers
You shared success in our fun
A feared adversary
In our clashes of strategy
A purveyor of delight
In the ingenuity of our imagination
In our lamentation of your absence
We comfort ourselves in knowing
That you travel to shores
Of welcoming smiles...

Dragon Rider
Mount me
Feel my powerful muscles flex
To beat my wings against the night
And carry you to places out of your mind
Hold tight
Grasp firmly with your thighs
Rippling beneath you as a I build speed
Pounding the evening silence
Call forth
Your pleasured screams
Wrenched by spiralling jaunt
Clutch close as we make our descent
Relax now
As claws find yielding earth
Your gasps of throaty satisfaction
Sweet refrain to our impassioned journey
Feel my powerful muscles flex
To beat my wings against the night
And carry you to places out of your mind
Hold tight
Grasp firmly with your thighs
Rippling beneath you as a I build speed
Pounding the evening silence
Call forth
Your pleasured screams
Wrenched by spiralling jaunt
Clutch close as we make our descent
Relax now
As claws find yielding earth
Your gasps of throaty satisfaction
Sweet refrain to our impassioned journey

Dragon Tamer
Your persistence tempers my wayward heat
Your patience cools my profligate fire
Your beauty seizes my errant attention
Your body snares my haughty magnetism
Your mind inspires my capable imagination
Your love tames this turbulent dragon
Your patience cools my profligate fire
Your beauty seizes my errant attention
Your body snares my haughty magnetism
Your mind inspires my capable imagination
Your love tames this turbulent dragon

Telecopulation
When distance is imposed
By morals and kilometres
When cravings emerge
To feel my hull part waters
In pursuit of gliding freedom
(which is often)
I reach across land and sea
To place my thick long fingers
At your slippery disposal
To caress your missing skin
With raw passion
(yet salt our open wounds)
Limbs entangled in words
Sharing independent friction
To splay our transmitted sex
In hot jumbled joy
Our faces bask in liquid crystal glow
(tissues close at hand)
Eyes closed

Shields down!
That last hit nearly stripped my defences bare
Elevators are no place to be
When an assault commences
Shields are down for tomfoolery in my dusty state
Sexy alien boarding parties abound
Time to seal the captain's door and
Hide in pairs matched amongst right angled zebra’s
And winking numbers
To impose the grey-green defences
Of cathode-ray quiescence
Liquefied in crystal display
A last-ditch attempt
At volcanic suppression
Whilst outside they exude sweet temptation
Curing xenophobia to guarantee moralistic demise
