Getting to know you
You insert yourself
Subtly
Into the synapses
A flash here
Firing there
Erudite conversation pleases
Discussions of a melange of topics
A veritable cornucopia
Tantalizing my mind
Causing a bit of drool in the inner
recesses to pool
What can I say to this but that I am a slut for knowledge? I am careful to always wear panties around you not wishing to inundate you with the scent I cannot help but exude.
The other issue arises
You also appeal to me
In other ways
I find myself
Clutching
My fingers under
Tables
Chairs
In my lap and hidden with strategically placed napkins
Attempting to appear sophisticated and cool (for, after all, I DO work for whom I work - these meetings are FOR work)
But
No matter how I try
Desire will not forsake me
And it comes in annihilating swells
Your hands are a particular problem
But I have learned ways of deflecting their allure
It is your forearms that I cannot defend against
And
Because these meetings often last for hours
Because they must
By the end
When my fortifications are lowest ebbed
Is when you may decide to have done with
Your jacket, cufflinks, and, sleeves
Brazenly revealing forearms
That turn my knees to water
The first time you did this,
I was wholly unprepared.
I had been called out of the meeting suddenly
Now
I cannot recall why
Irrelevant
What I recollect most clearly is what happened when I reentered
And how it was fortuitous that I was finishing notes on my phone as I entered and made my way to my seat
For when I looked and saw you arguing some point and gesturing as you are wont to do, all breath left me, and I sank into my chair, legs suddenly incapable of holding me.
Had I seen you earlier, I would have fallen
Ignominiously displaying for all the extent of my weakness
Fortunately,
I was spared that
But, barely.
Breath leaving lungs - limbs lax with the force of feeling coursing through me like volcanic lava
I was grateful beyond measure that I had chosen, for once, to wear trousers, something I wear infrequently, as my wardrobe primarily is comprised of dresses and skirts, for two barriers lay between my gushing need and aromatic display.
I saw also a way to hasten things to closure on that night without, I hope, appearing in unseemly haste.
True, my voice was more throaty and liquid than usual, prompting eyes to linger upon me when I spoke, which I did as little as possible in the remaining time, aware that I was beginning to cause thoughts to stray towards other things not germane to the weighty matters of public policy at hand.
I dared not even venture to look upon your visage, knowing to do so would wreak complete devastation upon me for all to view.
Instead, as briskly as possible, I wrapped the meeting up, acutely aware of the sopping wetness betwixt my tightly clenched thighs.
Whilst everyone else rushed off eagerly, grateful for the unexpected boon of an early night, save you, of course, I lingered at the table gathering and placing files, revised statutes, notes in my case.
When next I looked up, we two were alone and you were offering me my trench, a fact for which I was immensely grateful.
I managed to stand thanking you for your courtesy, not meeting your eyes, not looking upon you, and you slipped the coat about me.
I clutched it to me, quickly belting it, hoping that little betraying whiff of desire I'd just inhaled had been my hyperawareness and not evident to you.
For one taut moment, I thought you had caught me, so rigid and still were you...
But, then, you stepped away and bid me good evening.
I picked up my things, bid you the same, still avoiding looking at you (knowing doing so could jeopardize all these oh-so-delicate negotiations), and fled.

An absolutely mind tingling turn on. The imagery was like watching a movie in a darkened theater and hoping no one could see my own excitement to rival yours. What I wouldn't give to be in that movie with you wanting me to the point of desires dripping from your soul. This is one of the best erotic writings I have read in a long time, and I read a lot of them... jj

After reading this amazing work of temptation, I began sampling the recording of your "throaty liquid voice" and thought how wrong I was that it couldn't get much better than what I had just read, at least not until after I heard such a voice as yours speak the words like a sexually stimulating orchestra playing notes I have never heard played with such passion. Exquisite is the only word that describes what I just heard...! JJ

With this poem, I'm beginning to get to know you...you painted an office meeting so vividly, bringing me back to those days of business and pleasure. Your mesmerizing voice complements your magnificent writing.
Cool write Savaja...could still hear your voice whispering through my ears!

".... negotiations" so this is how it's done.

The contrast of formal language and raw urges gets the sapiosexual tensions up. You have a very effective reading style.
The descriptions work well. I suggest some editing to the 'telling' and trusting the reader understand with the 'showing'.
For example:
"I dared not even venture to look upon your visage, knowing to do so would wreak complete devastation upon me for all to view."
Edited:
"I dared not venture a look upon your visage."
With the scene already built up, the reader knows why the narrator won't look.
:)
Wonderfully vivid.

You goddess. Thank. You. :-* Editing is oft-times a rather harrowing process, snipping out bits of things to which one has grown unreasonably and irrationally attached, I have found. :-p
It is most helpful to have others round with reasoned, sound advice and open eyes to steer one to better paths (even though there is that wee, petulant voice in the depths of the mind screaming but, I want it - pruning is necessary and excellent for forward momentum and growth!) :-*
(Okay, here's my disclaimer: I went to change it and I remembered what I had forgotten: there is something peculiar about that phrase that changes all about it. I attempted when I wrote it to pare it down, actually; I find too much other hinges upon it. It was odd to me at the time and it is now as well...)
Oh, thank you, luv, a million times, I cannot thank you enough. :-*

Re: Getting to know you
I know erotica comes in many shapes and sizes, there are a lot of strokes for different vixens and blokes. This piece is pure erotica, if I were to value this fine piece of writing, it'd be 24 karats.
Everything about it, the imagery, the way you captivate your [smiling] audience with your excellent story telling, put simply, this piece is outstanding. And before you utter a word of denial to such praise... I'm most certain my comment is free of hyperbole... I'll say it again. Outstanding.
