Embers

This smolders and incrementally inches it's way into a penned inferno. The heat escaping the page, gloriously burns against my own passionate sensibilities, igniting me. I do so love those licks of flames!!  

I have greatly enjoyed reading your work. It's refreshingly impactful, unique and beautiful crafted. I find myself looking forward to see what you create next. How terrific of a feeling!
Anticipation, indeed!

Thank you for sharing with us 🙏🏻
and welcome to DUP
I sincerely hope you enjoy your time here.

Thank you for the incendiary commentary, Blue, and for the warm welcome as well! Everybody has been so perceptive and gracious, I'm looking forward to sharing more and honing my pen here (: Much love and respect <3

Hot write (I mean this more than punningly). Favourite line, for seductiveness:

mounting hips and  
sinuous whispers are how you
play with fire.

Quite erotic Andromeda painting, without the bondage-hinting chains. This Andromeda reaches out to and welcomes the monster.

I have written a poem about the Andromeda of Greek mythology in DUP.

I always appreciate a good pun, sir, as well as an expert insight. Very glad to hear you enjoyed this one (:

Sometimes, I tend to avoid pieces slapped with the erotica tag that present this horrid pile of pump n’ dump nonsense… however, yours is exactly the type of classy affair I don’t mind reading because it takes the time to see underneath beyond what simply is.

I’m not sure if the art you choose is random, or part of a larger collection, but it’s a fascinating walk through. So much so that I wanted to look into the pieces after. I like these journeys through collections.  I wrote a series of poems based on every tarot card in the major arcana a few years back and I guess I can appreciate pieces that expand the meaning beyond the canvas.

It’s so gentle this — the portrayal of the metronome and the gentle sway gives this piece an incredible lilt. You almost want to become part of the movement when you read when you realise the act itself is rhythmic.

That line about coaxing embers into kindling is such a gorgeous metaphor that inflames the act itself.

I don’t want to be like super cliche and say “beautiful piece” … but words very much to that effect.

Perhaps mesmerising brevity is a more arty phrase :)

Thank you for sharing and I’m glad you’re here to save us all from the meat slapping horror of the erotica tag on this site. 😂

This might just be the best review I've ever received xD I do enjoy penning erotica and spending time in that sort of realm, but I don't think I'd be able to sleep at night if I was responsible for any aimless sex stories xD  

My artwork is all found on Wiki Commons, so that I know it's safe to use as visuals for my work. This one just seemed right, considering the themes at hand. To me, sex isn't purely physical. It involves all five senses, as well as a range of chemicals and emotions, so why not dress it up a little? "Meat-slapping" for the sake of meat-slapping doesn't necessarily make for good writing xD

As always, I'm grateful for your kind words and your sharp insight, Missy. And you know as well as I do that I'd love to take a look at your workings concerning tarot (:

“This might just be the best review I’ve ever received”

… yeah sorry, I’m a bit of an over-sharer. And I’m just a poetry fanatic… I’m very much a Pisces in that regard. 😂

I’ll have to see if I can dig out the series. It was written on my old account that doesn’t exist anymore. That’s a whole other story. 😂

Have a great day!
