Scent
The last
Scent
Of hope
Lingers
Like the terribly
Sweet
Dangerous
Whiff of
Secondhand smoke
Just outside
The glass door
At the hotel’s
Over-chlorinated
Four-foot-deep
Pool
That
Bittersweet realm
Where dreams
And nightmares
Concoct
This horrible
Reality

Depression
I took no one
To prom
I didn’t even
Cruise the drag
With the dregs
That night
I shuttered my window
I turned off the light
I think
I spent the night
Begging
For no dawn
To prom
I didn’t even
Cruise the drag
With the dregs
That night
I shuttered my window
I turned off the light
I think
I spent the night
Begging
For no dawn

Path
The sun was sinking
Giving just a hint of gold
After a day of respite
Beyond the blanket of
Cold grey clouds
The breeze stirring
In the grass and reeds
Was the only sound
I paused
Feet upon the planks
Of that slowly eroding path
I breathed
Pungent petrichor lingered
I could feel the changing season
Deep in my lungs
I found myself
At the edge of the world
And as the night quickened
The clouds thinned
And one by one
The stars came to life
Giving just a hint of gold
After a day of respite
Beyond the blanket of
Cold grey clouds
The breeze stirring
In the grass and reeds
Was the only sound
I paused
Feet upon the planks
Of that slowly eroding path
I breathed
Pungent petrichor lingered
I could feel the changing season
Deep in my lungs
I found myself
At the edge of the world
And as the night quickened
The clouds thinned
And one by one
The stars came to life

Dance
Dancing under the moonbeams
Streaming through the curtains
Two-left-feet lovers
With amorous intent
Petty thieves
Stealing kisses
Novice poets
Whispering suggestive lines
Overdressed initiates
With overeager helping hands
The dance stumbles
And we both tumble
Onto our next arena
Pulling off cloth
And panting between breaks
Of fierce French kissing
A lull in the commotion
Lets my eyes scan
Her near naked form
Those shining eyes
Brimming with gentle...

Before the Mirror
She stands before the mirror,
An august vision
A supple young tree
Blushing pink
Swaying in my breeze
And as the Autumn wind
I ripple through her leaves
Gently I disrobe her
As she watches me
She grows red
With slight trembling
Hers is a pure innocence
A tenderness so heavenly
I lay a kiss upon her shoulder
Drinking her fragrance in
Like jasmine and cinnamon
Is her soft and silky skin
Though blushing
She governs the night
How eagerly I long
To bathe her with delight ...

Still
We’re still now
Her fingertips
Magnetized
To my back
Her breathing
Labored
But normalizing
Her words
Tender
Filled with gratitude
Her fingertips
Magnetized
To my back
Her breathing
Labored
But normalizing
Her words
Tender
Filled with gratitude

Sparks
I begin with her ear,
And if she’s like me,
Just a tug on her lobe
Fills her with electricity,
I want to map her out,
My lips have this urge,
To find every little spot
That makes her body surge,
I whisper my intent,
And how she blushes red,
She says my little venture
Must be taken to the bed,
Her bashful voice
Feels like a dream,
‘I hope that you won’t stop
Until you make me scream’
And if she’s like me,
Just a tug on her lobe
Fills her with electricity,

And how she blushes red,
She says my little venture
Must be taken to the bed,
Her bashful voice
Feels like a dream,
‘I hope that you won’t stop
Until you make me scream’

Weekend Dawn
She lays back,
Drawing open
Slowly
Her scant robe;
Blushing
As an arbatax lily
With a
Pure heart;
She draws my hand
To her cheek,
To adore her
For a silent moment;
I run my fingers
Through her silky locks,
Admiring her
Quality and character;
She lays her hands
Gently on my cheeks,
Drawing me down
For a steady kiss,
Thrusting her tongue
Into my mouth,
Jousting with mine
As we try not to gasp;
Our kiss ends
With glistening smiles,
And I burst out: ...

Waste
I fell in
Again
Halfway down
A bottle of bliss
Wasted the day
And now I’m pissed
And all I hear
Inside my ear
Is the reprimand
For my error
And then I see
It so clear
Facing me
In the mirror
Again
Halfway down
A bottle of bliss
Wasted the day
And now I’m pissed
And all I hear
Inside my ear
Is the reprimand
For my error
And then I see
It so clear
Facing me
In the mirror
