Iconic Desire
I ask you to smile
But not to much
We operate on the perimeter
Somewhere between illegal and sublime
Standing on the cold banks
Of a river with no name
Pressed into me, your hands in my pocket
Your heartbeat apparent against
The weight of your breasts
We shape the moments
Knowing they are brief
Lovers on the outside of cool sexuality
A duality of common cause and desire
Reckless, sometimes dangerous
A calling, an addiction, a love
With no home ...

Knowing they are brief
Lovers on the outside of cool sexuality
A duality of common cause and desire
Reckless, sometimes dangerous
A calling, an addiction, a love

You know we was reading this offline not thinking of being offline until we tried to comment. for one thing dude you recently posted a piece not complaining, but stating that you don't write as good as some poets. Well dude with that art thing under your belt, you're far more versatile than most. Besides when we read we don't compare writers, it takes away from what it takes for a person to put something that they've created out in front of the world to crap on. This piece in our opinion says that you run with the big dogs on this site, and totally has the writing thing down also. Tight

Well, it's gonna be hard for other's here to top your comment. This is based on a true story. Someone I met online who lived in a city relatively close to me. We communicated for quite awhile and then she came to my city. We spent 12 hours together and did it only once. But those 12 hours yielded hundreds of poems about sex and fantasy.
I appreciate your comment greatly.
Ultra tight
BIG THANKS ME

Thanks Pink
That was a crazy vapor relationship.
She ended up hating me for awhile during a breakdown she had but fortunately had a come to Jesus moment when she realized it wasn't me and actually dealt with her madness.
We're sometimes friends now but any trust we once had is long time gone.
Thx

By my count, you might have 99 alter egos...
Haha...
Not a bad thing...
I have enough difficulty
keeping up with...
One alter ego (Cipher_O)...
Whom I recently proclaimed
to actually... Be... Me...
In any event...
A pleasant scene set in the poem...

I actually write or have written under 5 names but Poetspeak is the motherlode
Poetspeak
Iconic99 - that's for bdsm and other crazy
Roadnoise
Push2start
Boom Box - so old I can't remember the password
Poetspeak is all purpose so I stay in that lane mostly. I'm glad to have you reading and communicating with me again.
Appreciate that and you !!

It was quite a time.
Some very fond memories.
Vapor can be a magical place but the shelf life is fleeting ...
Catch it while you can...

Dear PS,
Alas…
I’m not even going to try and out do I_IS_ME but I will say the feeling of nostalgia and dare I say, romantic memories in this write are profound and wonderfully written. BIG DIG!

Dear H,
Well as you know as a musician, if the writing is good and the composer has chops, it's bound to play well. This was one of those moment in time relationships and those usually write well !!
Appreciate the BIG DIG ALWAYS
THX
STAY TUNED

Gotta say, I do like the repackaging here, PS. It's a great little number, this one, full of description & almost bitter irony. Maybe I'm just saying that from my own viewpoint but 'a love with no home' really brings it home! See, I told you there was irony. 😊

Yes, irony all the way.
Great memories from this "no home" experience
