Blush

my fingers itch to impart

inky lines upon pale pages

for your pleasure

 

 

 

A wanton need fulfilled when

wrapped metaphors shroud me

in mystery

and veiled intentions wear clever disguises

 

 

 

cloaked in lace imagery

I prettily beg to be peeled back

layer by layer

to expose that hidden and secret

inner core

 

 

 

I blush

 

 

 

I need you

 

 

 

only you can undress me

gently pry apart my lines

tenderly palpate stanzas

and oh so lovingly

coax my intentions

to the surface

Words on fire.
Made me blush in a time
naked attention seeking
is so much the norm.
The whole arangment
masterfully pulled me in.
i enjoyed reading like a
writer and witnessing
the author having the
the pleasure of letting go.

Thank you R. I am glad that you found it enjoyable.

Thank you Ken, I have always viewed the sharing of our poetic thoughts and voices to be akin to a sexual awakening and sharing of ourselves to our readers.

I’m pretty certain this poem would be banned in Kentucky’s public libraries and be a felony in Florida if a child of 18 happened to read it.

That's good! I will personally send a signed copy to DeSantis.

Don’t forget the Speaker of the House. On second thought, forget him.

Who is it this month? ;-)

[W. Barrett Munn]

LoL. Mr. Zipperhead or Pinhead.

[Starbaby]

I'm going to be spending 10 weeks in California in the new year. I plan to bring some Cyanoacrylate to use in the pools and hot tubs when the conversations turn to politics.

I came here because I wanted to see where you are coming from .. I was not disappointed but feel sure this is yet so much more to seek out, to yet find and enjoy to the core .. in spite of that, I feel I already know you .. but shall not say a word .. a gentleman neva does, does one .. All Good Things .. Neville

[Starbaby]

I am most appreciative that you took the time to come and get to know me.

[Neville]

Without wishing our time away .. why does it feel like forever .. Neville

Beautiful and amazing dance of words dear Starbaby. You made the reader believe every word. Us, who love to write. We need to take the reader to a better place. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

Beautifully sensual and wonderfully seductive. As if listening at a keyhole to one's private thoughts. Nicely done.

[John the Baptist]

I love the way light erotica makes you use your imagination. You can be moved by it repeatedly through different interpretations. Porn, on the other hand, fades soon after the first crude exposure.

[Starbaby]

Thank you John. I view writing poetry as an intimate form of expression, a way of sharing of oneself with the reader. My hope is to always do so with subtlety and good taste.

[Julie McCarthy (juliesp..]

An amazing write
You made me feel this to the inner paper core
Every writer wants to be known by
Their inner thoughts ideas beliefs wants desires needs to be recognised even if we can’t admit it we do want recognition by others although most of us write for our own pleasure we do want our layers to be peeled
You said it perfect 🤩

[Starbaby]

Thank you ever so much for your kind words Julie. I do appreciate it.

Oh-BOY! 🙄

SB,
Your double entendre play on words has spread a knowing smile across this bard's rugged face; for, there's a distinct love of slick, creative humor that tugs at my funny bone like nothing else. And, you're a wonderfully skilled master at it … as if you don't know. ; )
Fraught with playful metaphor, vivid imagery, and the perfect pinch of sensual naughty, your astonishing ability to draw the reader into your moment with you, by virtue of your delightful pen, is sheer pleasure to the imaginative mind's-eye.
Though, every line speaks a succulent kiss, your title and windup seven lines had me reaching for an ice bucket … ohhh-MY!

Now, where are those cigarettes?
Smitten thanks from an elated fan! ⁓ Richard🖌

[Starbaby]

Thank you Richard. it was written with love and a sense of humour. I am so happy that you found it enjoyable.

[Richard🖌]

Aw,
You're welocme.

[Richard🖌]

OOPS!
Dyslexia got me.

[Ken Simm.]

A delicate supremely erotic piece of poetry. Takes eros and makes it manifold.

[Starbaby]

Thank you Ken. I appreciate your words.

[Dave Brown]

and he is unfortunately, some while away

[Starbaby]

Ah, but you just assume that he reads, understands and appreciates my poetic voice. Sometimes one's talents are not shared and remain a mystery to those closest to us.

[Dave Brown]

dun duh dun dun, dun duh da!!

[Kaylor Mason]

It is as if written words come alive with their own soul and bathe in the erotic fires of desire and longing. This is really gorgeous!

[Starbaby]

Thank you dear Kaylor.
