Watch Me

Watch Me

A Poem by {A}shley {B}lack @-;-
"

You figure it out

"
Watch me

How I dance and move to nothing
Watch me
smile and batter my eyelashes seducing you
Watch me
turn a bound hand flexing my finger for you to come closer
Watch me 
tilt my head a blanket of ivory locks on my shoulder
Watch me
slowly blink bite my full lip purr behind the glass
Watch me 
turn to give you a view of the goods that you could explore

Enter

Hold fast maintain a steady course
Watch me 
undress from lace and draw curtains
Watch me 
saunter towards your raging fire
Watch me 
take to my knees 
Watch me 
writhe under your closed hands
Watch me 
struggle for breath and consciousness
Watch me
slip a tear as I gasp my last breath

Leave

The curtain drawn another victim of red light heaven

As always you write with amazing imagery.

This reminds me of the private shows at a strip club. The type that was performed behind glass. The customer enters he’s a newbie, but getting that one on one time. He is ashamed and yet thrilled at the same time. At the end he is afraid to admit but he is satisfied.

The beginning stanzas are very seductive. It calls to mind an image of a sultry temptress unleashed, who wants to unleash their lovers wild side. The only thing I would change is the very last line. It breaks the lovely flow of the poem as it is entirely different from the rest of the lines. I would consider finding a different way to work that into the poem- perhaps create another verse with that separated into two parts in it? As it stands it is very harsh.

Lovely evocative poem which seduces with every stanza.
Beautifully flowing with rhythm like a Latin tango.
