A Fleeting Finishing Blow

A Fleeting Finishing Blow

A Poem by BrittZurg
"

The ongoing game and my quick submission at the words you say.

"

The faintest notion tips, 

trips,

 tumbles.

Tangles of words,

incoherent mumbles. 


I devour each syllable,

words short and clipped.

I Seize their meaning 

by the wrists, 

“Do speak again sweet predator,”

I insist.


Every breath a burning flame,

swallowed whole

within your gunfire gaze.

Appraisingly,

 lazily,

your eyes glaze. 


Beholding me once, up and down.

Surrender I must,

suddenly stricken and spellbound.

Beneath your blistering stare, 

 I am eager to abandon 

each and every care.


Your lips then loosen, 

murmuring my name.

I watch the shape they make

rendering me as always

ever-eager

 prey.


With each implication claimed

I am utterly enamored, 

with every word

you dare

say.
