The Making of a Prince
As dirty as rock, as pure as iconic tween pop.
As furious as jazz and funk on the scene.
A Prince.
Suspended between plebians and royalty,
a tease eroticizing the average woman and man and reintroducing the fantasy
to love and sex.
At mid-arousal.
Because he could only be seen through purple film,
through the sacredness of a song of Solomon,
through Jehovah's gift of a companion to a secluded Adam.
The sex was holy.
The music was holy and right
and child-like.
High shoes, unbuttoned shirt,
and shy undertone carrying him home after a rock and rolling night.
Never leave Minneapolis,
not even when God's reaper takes you back
to mix you in with his soul.
Walking conundrum with a unicorn microphone.
Prince sprinkled the Tinker Bell riches over the folks.
A Prince.
Suspended between plebians and royalty.
Unassuming, just a symbol, not a name.
Each flicker of life is God orgasming from praise,
and Heaven is where we meet at the shores of his release.

Such amazing praise you gave to Prince,
He surely will be missed.
Well done Decipher, this is one's going in my reading list :)

Thanks Rocky. He was for a lot of people one of the first introductions to erotic art. Now we all try to write poems that do what he did in song.

True, sometimes I look to some of his sexier songs for some inspiration for when I'm writing erotic poetry.
My favorites: " Cream", " Sexy Dancer", " Kiss", and " Ripopgodazippa"

Good tribute to Prince (a few months my senior) - he sounds like a lot like me although I am not as flamboyant. I would say, adapting a title of the song of his Sinead O'Connor later covered - Nothing compares to him.
