Succubus

A captivating write about our everyday demons.

Thank you for sharing.

Well hey Fishmander, I am here to captivate you. ;) This one definitely speaks to our everyday demons and oh how seductive they can be. Or perhaps we are the demon, doing the seducing... But it cannot be helped... That passion has to go somewhere. You are very welcome, and thank you for sharing your thoughts with me.

Stark alluring lust and emptiness.
Hits hard with a vacuum sucking air from lungs.
Beware of what you want from her
Author, Poetess, Siren
Think you can handle her
Sweet talk, nicknames, alleged power
You're no match  
Don't say I didn't warn you

OBSERVATIONS FROM UNDERGROUND

Ah, the emptiness can be so alluring, really take you inside.
'His hard' ;) yes... a kiss that sucks the air from the lungs is irresistible.
You might get what you want from her, or you might lose your soul.
Author, Poetess, Siren - BIG LIKE. ;)
Well I am a lot to handle. lol
Sweet talk, nicknames, alleged power - BIG LIKE. :p
Oh no, you're no match.
Shhhhhh.... you aren't supposed to warn them damnit!

Always love observations from Underground.
After all when hell is your home, the Underground is very cozy and warm.

Hell is the Chamber when you don’t visit me.
Change !!
20 !!

But I feel comfortable in Hell, so does that mean I shouldn't visit you? :p
Change!!? What do you want me to change?

Change nothing

Visit more often …

I like the change nothing although there are some things I would like to change. Always a work in progress but that's life.

Ah, can you handle more often? ;)

Well I do need to visit more often, I have had so little reading time recently and that makes me sad. :(

We all have demon's and desires, sometimes they walk hand in hand
Awesome job gorgeous
Love and light
Ron xx

That is so true Ron, so many demon's and even more desires but they definitely sometimes walk hand in hand. Our demon's sometimes can create our desires or be our desires. It can definitely be a complicated and confusing relationship. It's no fun to just be an angel though. ;) Love and light backatcha. xx

You open with this sense of overview and natural cycles and the description pans down into the bed, with an imbued sense of the heavy, hot and sensual in the rather coquettish usage of question and details flowing in cycle. The third stanza I think brings across the subtle psychological interplay that is, as beings composed largely of emotional intelligence and instinctual drives, where the true essence of the sensual lies, in the longings and deliberations, the what ifs and may yet bes of desire, leading to a crash of abandon that is ultimately nullifying. In sexuality, there is a kind of surrender to absolute mutual annihilation of the inhibitions, responsibilities and social conventions that are so often a stymying governor of necessity, otherwise. The avatar of the succubus is well rendered throughout, I think, coming in the night, a sensual predator that evaporates with the dawn, she is something of a fevered dream.

It's well done K, I appreciate your comfort and alacrity with the medium.

You definitely hit the nail on the head so to speak. I love how descriptive and intuitive your interpretation is. Following the overview and natural cycles but especially down into the bed with a sense of the heavy, hot, and sensual. That's certainly something I wanted you to feel. ;) In addition to the playful coquettish aspect. Although there is a darker meaning also, there is a lighter playful feeling I was going for as well. Multiple meaning like with many things I write. But I suppose I especially like that you could see the psychological interplay exploring all of all those things you mentioned. The what ifs and may yet to bes of desire. There is definitely a kind of surrender, one that can take you away from all of those other things in your life. That annihilation of inhibitions, responsibilities and social conventions. Just replaced with raw passion, desire, and needs. I love that you got the succubus aspect as well. ;) Passion is something I feel very comfortable with. Love is another subject altogether. :p

For me love was the absolute height of bliss which I screwed up and lead to the absolute depth of torment, which lingered and slowly tapered off over time, unfortunately once bitten, twice shy for me.

It was my pleasure and glad to have had intuited some meaningful aspects of the writing.

Ah, yes love is something special that can lead to the height of bliss or the depth of torment. But you should always try again because when you have love it's the best experience you can ever have.

I always appreciate your astute observations of my words. Thank you! :)

Well there are worse ways to go. And she's a redhead so I'm doomed haha.

Great ink, friend 😁

You know it! Never boring and there are definitely worse ways to go than in a blaze of passion. But if you can handle it then you won't be able to do without it every night and that's the best. ;) Ah, redheads; you definitely have to be careful  with those DC. lol I need you to take me to hell, be a demon. Make me want to be a demon too. Making me suffer under the covers... ;)

I want the wings!
“Silent as a shadow” is another power,
where you can enter the mind as well!

Damn right! being able to fly would be awesome and they go along perfect with the horns. ;) Definitely, we always have to take over the mind; that's a vital part of the process of getting our needs met. ;) So many seductive powers to use in the process. And they will always love it. All's fair in love and war... :p

Hi Kristina:)

To me the Succubus is so intriguing.
The power, lust, and fantasy.
You did her proud in this!
I want the wings too!!

We know the power of lust and fantasy don't we. ;) To really pull the prey in body, heart, and soul. And have our way with them or perhaps just let them have their way with us and feel the intensity of those sensations completely throughout the body and mind. Be all of those fantasies for him so he can think of nothing else. Hell yeah! I can already see your wings. ;)

I have been waiting for an opportunity to use this line. "It takes an incubus to know a succubus."
Great poem my friend
Regards
James

So are you an incubus James? I think if you are going to have your soul sucked out the best way is through sex. Like a succubus, incubus are insatiable I am sure... But we always know which one can last longer... :p Really glad you liked this one and I could give you an opportunity to use that line. ;)

I think I was an incubus once. But that was a long time ago. Maybee I was purged with the love of a good woman, that's another story.

Regards
James

We see both heaven and hell through the hypnagogic haze!

Ah yes both heaven and hell can feel like a dreamlike state. Making those fantasies come true is the best. Perhaps heaven is kind of boring and I need someone to take me to hell. Make me suffer, where pain is pleasure, and pleasure is pain... But heaven can be beautiful too. I think we need them both. ;)

....and then the darkness is swallowed by the night....

More than just the darkness my dear RT. ;) The night can swallow so much, taking it all in deeply. Or is it the darkness that swallows the night. Well either way it's the best time of day. And the passion of the succubus resides there too. It's always great to see you and thank you for sharing your thoughts with me.

Yes but you make it all so sweet and so fun :)

Oh yes! burning up in the passion and losing your soul can be the funnest ride of your life for sure. ;) And I am here to make sure you have some fun, and I am very sweet too so you won't really know what hit you perhaps. :p Thanks for stopping by to visit me in the night Michael, I love that.

You place so much of yourself into your poetry K it can be difficult to comment at times. Like an onion, there are many layers (not comparing you to an onion. lol).  There is something so seductive, nourishing and dangerous of the succubus. The kind of danger which results in a trembling excitement, the pumping adrenaline watching the knife come closer. I have couple of ex's who could fit a Monsters of Love Series! You really are on top of this (pun intended). Rob

Definitely so much of me goes into my poetry and there are often so many meanings. I know what you mean it can be difficult to comment but I am so happy you did and I will always love hearing your thoughts. Oh yeah, just like an onion, so many layers... lol (yes I am your onion). Seductive is often so dangerous isn't it? Nourishing is an interesting choice of words for a Succubus but I like it. As the knife plunges in that excitement, intense thrill and sensation, and adrenaline feels so incredible. And as it's plunged deeper you feel everything... Haha, I think we all have some ex's who could fit the Monsters of Love series. I like being on top, or bottom, or... well pretty much any position. lol

I totally agree with Strangeways_Rob
There are always levels to unpack when reading you
There's so much impact in every line
It makes this poet marvel at how your mind ticks

Stellar ink indeed!!

Hey there Naaj, I love truly adore that you can see the many levels that exist in what I have written. I often wonder if someone can see all of the contrasting meanings or just one. So I am always pleased to hear the impact of each line can be felt more fully. Oh boy! my mind is a scary place. I don't know if you want to hear that ticking. It might just explode. :p 'Stellar ink' well of course I love that so much. ;)

Hoi hoi
I simply ticked the ‘like it’ button’ because every now and then your poems leave me speechless!

Thank you!
Kind regards, Gus

Hoi hoi Johnny. Well I love and really appreciate the like! ;) And every now and then I do love leaving you speechless although I love it when you talk to me even more so thank you so much for stopping in to share your thoughts. You really left me with a smile. ;)

My heart is beating for you.  Keep on writing.

I love a big beating heart to sink my teeth into. A succubus needs her nourishment, so I am glad you found your way over to see me Francisco. I do have to keep your heart beating though so you can again. ;) And thank you so much for the continued encouragement, I love that...

I want to pleasure you all day and night long.

beautiful poetry

Hey there beautiful girl, it's always great to see you! I am really happy you liked this one. Passion is expressed in many ways and one of the most fun is definitely physically. I hope you have a great weekend filled with lots of fun. ;)

You are absolutely right, it's really good way to express passion in physical form... and yaaay I also like you a lot darling.. n thank you for always being here... Hav great weekend to you!!

👏 👏 👏 absolutely amazing 👏 excellent work full of passion and excitement feeding within the Astral realm brilliant 👏!! Please keep on writing ✍ ok queen 👸 peace ✌ and blessings always 🙏 💖 ❤

Absolutely amazing for you my dear REMARKABLE. Oh yes! so much passion and excitement the succubus brings as she steals your soul but  you will love it. Being taken to the Astral realm over and over again. ;) I love the encouragement and blessings always. Perhaps I will post something today. :)

It's an awesome seductive piece, spellbinding. I loved the contrast of the danger and ecstasy of it all in the night that  you so elegantly spilled as it "disappears at dawn".
Well done Kristina, well done.

Awesome seductive, spellbinding... Well damn, I love that!!! Risk and ecstasy often go hand in hand don't they? The Succubus may drain your life force but you will absolutely love it when she does. ;) She will drain you in other ways as well and that thrill and excitement will replenish the soul for the following night's encounter. So addicted, you will never want it to stop but alas the Succubus does leave at dawn because she dwells in the night and the darkness of your thoughts. All those things you can do with her and with no one else... No boundaries, pleasure in her Hell is without boundaries. Two well dones, I love it. You are awesome and I am so glad you get it. ;)

I only succomb
To the succubus thrust
The lust eating us
AS the demons mean gleem
Shows that nightmares are also dreams

There is a lot of passion in the succubus thrust and it can feel really good if you can handle it. ;) Because the lust is always eating at us, need to be filled and fulfilled but it is ultimately insatiable. There are many more demons around us than angels so we must learn to live with them. But it would be boring to always be an angel, demons can be a lot more fun and nightmares can be dreams and dreams can be nightmares! Also one person's dreams can be another's nightmares and vice versa... But so long as there is intense passion then it all works out in the end I think.
