Heaven on Fire

Sometimes poetry can’t describe
That look in her eyes
The sound of her sigh
Or how it makes me feel inside
My mind is winding
Flying
High

I hide
My excitement
I try
But I’m blind
And alive
And lost
So gone
In her eyes

Sweet
Songs
Sing inside me

Sweet
Sublime
Sweet beautiful mind
Sweet kitten of mine
Come lay in my lap
Let me help you unwind

She parts her lips
And gasps
She moves her hips
And lets me slip
Inside her grasp

Lets me slide
And opens wide to push my might
Inside her life

She manifests
She burns desire
She drops to her knees
And sets me on fire

Soft bronze eyes
Look into my light
Look up with the longing
Of kittens and kindness

Look up with the hunger
Of ten thousand lions

While I am on fire
And lost in the highest
And brightest
Of flames of the purest desire
Pushing against her throat like a tiger
Fucking her like I’m possesed and on fire
Devouring her pain until nothing remains
But blood in our veins

Pumping out love
Like it’s made in the rain

I am the one when I’m buried inside her
She is the sun
And I’m blind
Standing by her

We will become
A great light and a fire
To bring life to the world
And to life bring desire

We’ll reach to the heavens
And then we’ll reach higher

We’ll pick up the torch
And light it on fire
We will be one
And our love be the pyre
To burn out the pain
Of the dead left behind her

I kiss her mouth and melt
She looks at me softly and knows how I felt
I hold her face in my hands and melt
I’m struck again by the hand I’ve been dealt

Thank the gods and the back door to hell

The Little Death

Basking in the afterglow of your scent
Glowing song in my lung
I am a dream floating on a memory of last night

How easily
You will extinguish me
A simple word and the illusion shatters
Revealing the cold surface of reality

A broken bruise
Was a flaming heart
Born out of fire
Incinerated by the heat
And collapsing

And your song turns to dust in my mouth

Disappointment
Is the tune of life
The echo of humanity
The frailty of existence
The lie on your lips

You allowed me to taste your honey
Knowing you were coming
Only for yourself
Leaving me on the brink
About to burst
Into song
Leaving me to destroy myself
When you’re gone

You indulged in my gifts
Knowing you would never lift a finger
To find me
Once I fell from your sight

I did not see the truth that night
I did not read your silence right
I did not hear your selfish slight
Fooled again
The broken man
Tasted life then lost the light

How easily
Your memory
Poured into me
So happily
Then suddenly
Washed over me
Surprising me
With misery

I will carry your memory

Another sad stone
To weigh down my bones
To break down my soul

Just another false hope
To put behind me

Your Sandwich Looks So Good

I

In the beginning
I smell your flower
I want the power of your beauty
On my tongue

I am bursting colour
Fragments of you
Cascading across my skin
Curious fingers
Flavour me
Hot breath on my neck
As I play in your puddle

II

Can I bring my toys
To your sandbox
And break them
So I can play with yours

I haven’t wanted
What I have
Since I found what I have not

Now I want
What I will not
And I’ve been taught
The world is mine

And once I’ve lost
What I have bought…
When it’s gone
I’ll want it back

The sparkle drops
In the eye of the living
The mask comes off
When the magic breaks wishes

Ditches and limits
Desires are bitches

Nothing is ever good enough

Abyss (Self-Consciousness)

Your lips unfold before me
A wet mess
Wanting
Wrapping yourself around me

I am soft in your mouth

Lost in my mind
I am somewhere else

Warm hands and warm tongue
Invite me with delicate whispers
Coax me out of my deep shadow

Longing to taste
To be torn open
Gushing warmth
To be thrown open
Wide and emptied
Of all that drowning noise
Brimming over the edge
Of tolerance

We look to each other
To wield the hammer
To bring us to to the brink
And push us when we back away

We look to each other
To be broken open
Revealed in the light

Cavernous are the hidden desires
Tied delicately with fear

Waiting
Wanting to be undone
Thrust wide and hard
To penetrate the deepest places
And bust through the wall
That keeps us from true power

The certainty of confidence

You grip my hammer
With a sly smile
Soft swing to make it hard
Begging me to spread you wide
And break you open

You know I will…

Confusion Is Sex

It’s a subtle shadow
The way we move
Showing everything in blinding flashes
Hints of the truth
Interlaced in lullabies

I’ll be your golden cow
Your sacred goose
So close to what you thought you knew
I’ll show you
Music

A smile is a contagious gift
Bridging the rift momentarily
Your eyes caress my lips
With hesitance and wonder
The scent on your neck
Compels me
(Entices me to move closer)

Curiousity inspires
My desire to get inside you
A warm blanket across a cold room

I want to show you
More than you can see
I want to bring you closer to the fold
Watch you grow
As I share the things I think I know
Curiously crawling under your skin

Palms out to receive
I swallow your seeds
And sing for them to grow in me
To be
To keep you

Sacrificial Lamb is Succulent

A 2nd bonus post for missing my typical Thursday publication. Been without internet or a laptop for over a month…so ya. Posting with my phone. Yay.

Lamb chops braised in red wine and garlic, with a sprig of rosemary, portobello mushrooms and red pepper.

Sear lamb chops in a hot pan with a small splash of olive oil for about a minute per side, until browned.  Wrap in tinfoil tent- the lamb chops, minced fresh garlic, a splash of lemon juice, a few splashes of red wine, sprig of rosemary and sliced mushrooms and peppers. Season lightly with cracked pepper and sea salt.

Loosely close tinfoil package and place in tray. Cook at 350 for 2 hours. Enjoy with some more red wine.

I wonder if any skilled culinary geniuses can spot the mistake I made from the pic included in this post…?   😉

Will the prize be my lucky charms?

No.  Not likely.

Birthday Sex And The Bird

It’s my birthday. 12 days past Christmas. I’m going to cook my first turkey dinner today, by myself. The ocean is roaring in comfortable silence on the other side of town. The night before I picked up all the ingredients and brined the bird. Brining is simple and makes the meat very moist and tender. I dumped the 12 lb turkey into a double-bagged garbage bag, poured in about 24 cups of water and 2 cups of salt, then left it in the back entrance of our house overnight, which is always very cold. Maybe I left it in the snow in the backyard, actually. Good luck trying to put the beast back into the fridge, in any case…a cooler usually works best.
