POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
What If?
Risk sits outside
A secure office door
Sanctum to suspended intentions
Unique in their common needs
Reasons merge in trembling touch
Lips push together over a precipice
Tumbling down this lusty cliff
Striking surfaces both hard and soft
Hearts racing in their sensory descent
Building anticipation ripped asunder
An impact base in all contexts
Ending awash in red flushed heat
Pact executed
Shocking in its aftermath
Water muddied in mutuality
A secure office door
Sanctum to suspended intentions
Unique in their common needs
Reasons merge in trembling touch
Lips push together over a precipice
Tumbling down this lusty cliff
Striking surfaces both hard and soft
Hearts racing in their sensory descent
Building anticipation ripped asunder
An impact base in all contexts
Ending awash in red flushed heat
Pact executed
Shocking in its aftermath
Water muddied in mutuality

Forbidden
Smiles, smirks, darting glances sheathed in knowing
Electronic conspiracies, hurriedly hidden
Lamented loss of lascivious language
Consumed hungrily by obfuscate sense of preservation
Racing, thready, prickling blood
Agitated spaces and pauses in-between
Pantomime indifference when proximity presents
Dangerous distractions from tasks to complete
Manacled, chained, restricted and tied
Undeniable desires deprived chance to catch light
Beauty, humour and intellect form fuels for this pyre
Consequences threatening like aftermath ashes
Electronic conspiracies, hurriedly hidden
Lamented loss of lascivious language
Consumed hungrily by obfuscate sense of preservation
Racing, thready, prickling blood
Agitated spaces and pauses in-between
Pantomime indifference when proximity presents
Dangerous distractions from tasks to complete
Manacled, chained, restricted and tied
Undeniable desires deprived chance to catch light
Beauty, humour and intellect form fuels for this pyre
Consequences threatening like aftermath ashes

Self Control
You drink him in with your eyes
Fabric tension hinting at what hides in wait
Imagination like Tetris
Filling in blanks, to score
You breathe him in through your nose
Animal in nature, palpable on the palate
Thudding as your lungs fill
Logic escaping with trembling exhalation
He shouts into your ears
Voice like warm honey
Dripping soft yielding heat
Sounds waves bursting on saline shores
Your nails dig into skin
Clawing to escape
Pain palmed like a conjurors coin
Distracting from immediate peril
