Awaited awakening

loose lipped, tight tipped

Injecting deep into me

formaldehyde of jealousy

 Rhythmic warm chill

presses on pulsating throat

sticky skin anoints

soothing balm of obssession

Surrender fills silence

thighs pillow dormant anger

your cunning apology

having resentfully missed me

tendrilled fingertip...

A seat

Empty beside me

The distant glow

Of the fires below

Your spirit in the smoke

Does form

I nuzzle into

Your right shoulder

You hold my head

And kiss my cheek

“It will be alright.” you smile

Yet the tears still fall

I blink and look again

 you are not there at all

Hearts dangling on a mobile

two apart

two together

no control

swirling, swinging

they turn

this way

that way

clanking, rattling

strung together

ever tangled

never free

whichever way the wind blows

sexuality not sensual

gutters out

if sensuality equates sexuality

finesse unplumbed

true intimacy of senses

transcends body

so simple so easy

so rare

What planet are you from?

Do you return home to see your loved ones?

I'm sure you miss them.

I'd miss my wife if I was eight light years away from my beloved.

Let alone missing my beer drinking brother.

If I remember, it was his round.

That was a decade ago, before I was posted to Desert World Two with its cold cobalt snow and methane sky.

My husband’s lover is jealous of me
My husband is jealous of you
I am jealous of your wife
And she doesn’t have a clue

Honesty has no part to play
In this age old fashioned game
All delightfully free in delusion
The blood still runs the same

Your Excellency, a Lady of Separation!

I am cold, and that's a damnation!

The letter in the envelope, do not tear, my dove!

I am not lucky in death, I’ll be lucky in love!

Your Excellency, a Lady of Luck!

For someone you are kind, for another one a chuck

Nine grams in the heart, just wait, do not call!

 I am not lucky in death, I'll be a winner once for a...

He loves me

in a modern way. He texts me

almost every day. He posts his thoughts

on facebook pages and finds

my crazy cats outrageous. I think

there is a lot we share; Music, films,

the open air. Maybe he'll make

my life complete. I wonder

if we'll ever meet?
