Nocturnal Admissions

Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake. - Thoreau

awakened abruptly

where am i

am i really there with her

foggy recollections of comingled loins and undulating hair

delusory sand and splintered driftwood of engorged emotions bobbing here and there

caught in fishnet stockings

the boat is tossed and rocking

a foaming sea slapping at the shore

ever humping for more

glory of buoyed, bosomed protuberances of folklore

could it be as it seems

same outcome, different themes

seeing my flacid, disappointed manhood

walking a narrow balanced beam

in just another spent, wet dream

Author's Note

"You must live in the present, launch yourself on every wave, find your eternity in each moment. Fools stand on their island opportunities and look toward another land. There is no other land; there is no other life but this, or the like of this. I wish to live ever as to derive my satisfactions and inspirations from the commonest events, everyday phenomena, so that what my senses hourly perceive, my daily walk, the conversation of my neighbors, may inspire me, and I may dream of no heaven but that which lies about me." - Thoreau

[Betty Hermelee]

a very beautiful and sensual wet dream, loved the idea of the boat swaying and your body mimics this movement..."ever humping for more"...great metaphors....." bosom ed protuberances"...Many of us don't' recall our dreams, but some do and this one is incredibly sexy...."emotions bobbing here and there"
metaphors galore!

To wake up from a dream that seems so real and it takes a few minutes for reality to set in. Those vivid passion filled dreams can cause quite the stir

[Pete]

better the dream we've just been introduced to than the nightmare we vividly know. thanks pb ... :)

[Poetic Beauty]
