incubus



cry "incubus" and let slip the hounds of my passion.
cobalt blue eyes peer at me unblinking across the silicon sea,
promises of passion and satiation and degradation I whisper
to myself as the blood red garnets at my fingertips
shower me with fire. fire born in me and borne by me.
the curve of an angular touch. fingertips sliding over
the pink meringue of breasts as a single gasp of a barrier
crossed is lost in the soft, silent sigh of a soul
fighting for survival in the warmth of a lovers embrace.
faces touching. but not one another as explorations
become frontiers toppled and a slow, wet, warm thought
spreads like a lacework comforter across thighs
and eyes and hands absorbed into the dance of lies
given over to the truth of attraction striking sparks
in the darkness of curiosity made impossible desire.
and filled with the taste of you. for now.
