Decadence

by sibyllene   Oct 9, 2007


Syllables tumbled murmured
into shoulder mouthing, sweet soft wet
skin searching, limb twining
delirium
oh,
God...
to whom do we now speak,
oh,
there are no words, no meaning
purpose beyond my hand
at your back, search me all,
insistent waves, steady tide throb
scent of hair, your neck, your warm
delectable slow hungry pulse,
don't stop, don't
hum-tumbled words soft
let me pull you into
rich dark weak, sweet
oblivion

    Three years ago I asked "why decadence"

    perhaps the title was confessional....

    tantalizing speculation cannot solve the question but, this is still quite effectively incredible..
