Down
Her harlot red mouth
Wraps around my aorta
Forcing my pulse down
=
Orange
I’m ripe and willing
Remove my chastening rind
Break me down, taste me
=
Heart line
Hold me as if yours
Stroke my heart line with your tongue
Ravish destiny
=
Recluse
Of my life a door
That offers no safe passage
I wait, closet-pressed
=
Beauty
However fragile
Beauty, such as I, possess
Summons not through flesh
But drips hot and ambrosial
From the barrel of a pen
=
Growl
You wear your brows drawn
A darkened face, in darkness kept
Cinched throat, menacing
=
Idle
The Devil’s hand rests
Inside my knotted entrails
Submissively tense

When I write I don’t worry about gender so the first one is written as if the writer were male
Submission for

Thank you so much Ramesh =)
The gender swap tends to happen to me a lot aswell! I liked all of it, but I think Orange was my favourite from this post 🙂
I see no reason to worry about gender lol Aww thank you =)
It is lunch time and I see two oranges staring at me 😉 Now you know what will happen to them next!! The closeted one the growl and being knotted inside is just sad and requires more relaxing techniques to be practiced …..like squeezing that orange for a yummilicious drink!!
Thank you Nanka as orange really does sound nice right now!
All fabulous Idle and Recluse are favourites from my perspective!! 🙂 🙂
Thank you Helen =)
Love them all but the first one and the photo is a knock out..stunning!
Awww thank you!
Hold me as if yours
Stroke my heart line with your tongue

Wonderful take but I particularly like this one. It gives a sense of sensuousness. And it goes very well with the pic. Nicely!
