mortis à trois

I'm liking this a lot, Viddax. LIfe needs a reason for living for it to continue. I can't think of a better reason than enjoying the company of a much loved companion.  

The Romantic in me says Life is nothing without Love. Fortunately my inner Rage is brutalising the voices of Cynicism and Sarcastic Wit before they can answer with a depressing reality.

“if while our lips entwine
they defy death's stare,
their passion buying me some time
to complete them.”

☝️ this could be a poem all on its own, and was the part that stuck out the most for me.

I remember writing once about how we are all just skin craving other blankets of skin. All of us helping each other home in some way, some form.

A very pure thought this one. Thank you for sharing.

Another blanket of skin would be nice, but I would much like the souls beneath to also meld and make a deity with no back!

I'm still  not sure that last line is quite right, but I cannot find a better alternative. In the clarity of empty moments, tablets of wisdom are carved; the alternative is to pass on into silence....

... So we’re looking for somebody who is less Ed Gein and more friendly. Try writing that on yer Tinder profile and watch people run. 😜

Oh my word, leave the last line! I think it adds such a lovely “being left on a thread” tone to the piece.

My humble opinion, of course. Don’t change it. I’ll just be disappointed. 😂

I know you've marked it Love, but this would be a breath of Zephyr-like air in the Erotic section. Because it is actually erotic, in that it’s implicit rather than explicit. It's also just a finely crafted little piece about the human condition.

It could well fit snugly within the erotic but so does a lot of smut! And in truth, were I to find such a being then I would adore them with a fire beyond anything found in the loins alone.

Death is not so bad if there is time to make some love....
