Feeling alone
my sickness made worse

by your
silent treatment.
Silent treatment is when you ignore someone

Wet cotton *******
  alluring scent
wafts




upon the washing line.
Gotcha

Insomnia makes strange bed fellows of us all
as sleep replaced by poetic sense of irony
as when we are alone we find good company
within the spirit box of demonic technology

there beneath the glass rise unspoken words
seemingly writ by modern day planchette
as disembodied heads with rictus smiles
beckon us with whispered promises typeset

fingers fearing rheumatism fumble with keys
unlocking neuron pathway to answer their call
to find peaceful rest beneath ink stained sheets
as insomnia makes strange bed fellows of us all
This is in response of his insomnia poem

You sleep sound
as I
in silence
trance your countenance
with gentle fingertips...

from the gentle *****
of upturned chin
or' soft plumped lips
that earlier bore the taint
of rouge and mine own kiss...

turning my hand to tenderly
back-stroke they cheek
moisturised and cleaned of my heated touch...

up towards now shuttered eyes
in semi permanent state of rest
as before fluttered and batted so
as to place butterfly kisses upon my aching skin...

finally the ears so unadorned by trinkets
yet still bearing a trace of me
my scent left my nuzzling mouth
nibbling gently upon it's perfect lobe...

as you sleep sound
I in silence trace your countenance
with sleepy eyes
mirroring my smile as once more
I brush back your hair and kiss your neck...

sweet dreams my love

and may my love
bring you

sweet dreams.

I love the way you lick your lips so teasingly

prompting me to teasingly follow suit
and lick
your

lips.

Soft petals open...

slowly
infusing the cool night air
with fresh
sweet perfume

warmed
gently upon the naked thighs
of exotic maidens...

dressed in shadows
and half
inviting smiles

their eyes promising summer fields
amongst the white
crisp
winter sheets

passion fruit
pressed gently to her lovers lips
to taste deep

the temptation



offered.

Romeo epitomised love
as he willing
died for it
he took the life he could not offer
openly to Juliet
and cast it down
beside her
hoping in death
they would know what life
denied them


forever
