to
violate~
by
definition an unsavory act
to
treat something sacred
with
irreverence, disrespect
to
come into, to overtake
by
the strength of a solid hand
against
one’s will, against one’s choice
not
to be deterred
but
by candlelight in this darkened room
there
is another side to see
where
surrender and submission
invite
you into me
still
bound by your hand and bent to your will
I
am at your command
but
released at a simple word
like
picking an apple from a tree
slow
and measured the waves begin
rocking
back and forth
mesmerizing,
hypnotizing
lost
in the motion’s force
listening
to words of direction
navigating
this course
following
them to the letter
knowing
the end result
the
pace quickens to fevered pitch
words
not for polite company
reaching
deep, to the center
the
connection of all things
pushed
by the words, pulled by restraints
filled
completely whole
almost
beyond the point of breathing
ecstatic,
overwhelmed
tears
streaming, body writhing
explosions
come in waves
over
and over convulse and contract
the
flood simply overtakes
the
touch of a cheek, the graze of lips
smiles
and words of praise
bound
again in comfort’s grip
and
tenderly laid to rest
this
violation as so defined
this
desecration so named
is
actually an act of consecration
sanctifying
faith
~for my muse~
Really a strong poem, Andrea! I hear you!

gracias, mi amiga
You really have a talent for conveying passion. It's very inspiring. Also, the warning made me laugh a little.
ReplyDeleteEnter, exit, and in between there is you.
ReplyDeleteAnd in these mists
ReplyDeletethis heady, serpentine violation
one finds something more...
than your complete salvation.
When you convey, you relive, transmit.
ReplyDeleteSome see your genius,
Where others just see shit
I 'll convey which aspect of you
I readily see...Lickety-split .
Simply stunning. Like you.
