Scent of a man
I like my coffee
like my men
fully
loaded
bring me
your heaviness love
rest inside
the softer places
I'll fall quietly
upon
your proclivities
& wet my lips
chasing
those lovely rills
all the way
to your wicked mouth
I love the way they misbehave
like my men
fully
loaded
bring me
your heaviness love
rest inside
the softer places
I'll fall quietly
upon
your proclivities
& wet my lips
chasing
those lovely rills
all the way
to your wicked mouth
I love the way they misbehave

Dear K,
Yes, exactly! It’s the third stanza that’s really got hold over me because it’s exactly spot on yet I’m not sure why I do this? Another wonderfully thoughtful piece for me to contemplate. H🌷

Perhaps we're never really sure why
we do what we do? Maybe it doesn't matter anyway, lol.
Either way, thanks for another
thoughtful comment, H!

I mean... WOW!
This is why I love reading poems here on DUP; the absolute joy I derive from feeling like I've been lucky enough to stumble across the rare diamond in the rough of beautifully rendered poems, is a bit like a high! The depth of this line had me catching my breath - "rest inside the softer places"... It was one of the many that I found wholly captivating... but that last line is 100% 🔥
It almost melted me to the floor.... ;)
Thanks for my "fix" of stellar reading.
I'm so glad you are here with us.
