Still Life
I smile not for Picasso or Renoir
grand masters they may be
Impressionist becomes
me, a subject for you
I sway my bodice
corset your dreams
allow me
to nestle in
your warmth
drink from my lips
my words
tonight
woven intricately
strewn from a distance
let me travel
to your sitting room
feel me carress
navigate your reference
let me be your library.
fumble through my knowledge
guide your fingertips
to my mind
an escapade
traveling all over your body
feeling your strength
your hardness
my weakness
delve into my canvass
let me be
your painting
dripping wet
waiting to unstill
life
into you

| wow, I can't believe this is just the first poem I've read from you. It's great. There are too many lines I love, to enumerate them. All I can say is that I really loved this; I'll go and read another one of your work now.Timi |

I love the the erotic sensuality of this one, without it being shoved in my face, although I do like those kinds of poem also. But, your artistic expression, like Ron said, of utlizing art and poetry works for you in leaps and bounds. My favorite lines:
traveling all over your body
feeling your strength
your hardness
my weakness...
How appetizing and seductive those are. Really good writing, Joni. |
