"enticed" poems
Lipstick kisses, we're both wearing red. I motion her over and onto our bed. Blood red smeared across our lips. I keep her enticed, I straddle her hips. Seductively playing, I'm touching my lips. Long acrylic nails, for us never fails. I show her a ***** and she gently wails. She's waiting, my sweetheart, I lust her so much. We **** we're on fire and I wonder, which of us holds the power. I, in all honesty is hoping it's her, 'cause then I'll continue this life in her beautiful blur. Poetry by Kaydee.

We're on Fire.
#*I saw a path and ran ahead I nearly lost my way Your mercy caught me by the arm To Your side You bid me stay I put my hope in my own plans Which soon around me fell You stopped me short upon that road And said, "Rest and all will be well." I'd surrendered all, but to my foe Enticed into the briars You turned his evil schemes instead Into refining fires I couldn't see my helplessness Until my legs were broken Till Shepherd's hands caressed my wounds And healing words were spoken You picked me up and carried me And made me feel Your favorite You held my head against Your chest Until I grew to savor it You tended me with gentlest touch Then soothed all thought of fears You sang forgiveness over me And washed away my tears There is no one like You, Lord On whom I can rely In loss, in danger or attack You hear this poor sheep's cry It's You Who keeps me from real harm Who watches my coming and going You shield me with Your strong right hand From darts the enemy keeps throwing You said to all who trust in You You would give perfect peace Enough for mind and heart to rest To let all worrying cease So, Lord, I trust You with my life Your Shepherd's heart is pure Your purpose for me's guarded well And Your deliverance is sure Please teach this sheep, Lord, how to wait And strengthen me to stand To put my hope in Your desires And to love Your sovereign plan You lead me into fields so green Where streams of life are flowing Where healing winds blow oft' and strong And choicest fruits are growing You set me free to hear Your voice To follow at Your call And even through the dark, cold nights I'll know You've arranged it all Yes, storms will come with battering rains With hail and gusts and thunder But these are meant to beckon me To Your wings to pull me under For it's in the darkness of the storm My grip's most apt to tighten And when my heart beats next to Yours All earthly burdens lighten*#

An urge too strong to resist. Once enticed. Can't resist. Go ahead and try to; I insist. End up. Face up. Go ogling; ***** so you can read **** **** like this.

Forbidden Fruit
Was with  a salacious witch       with amazing quick silver tongue, Confidence personified    she challenged me to chase her, If I so wish, not in words.  Her liquid eyes and gestures, made me mad with pleasure by the time we reached the peacock hill. Peacocks, big  blue eyes painted on feathers,    each, was in love with her, it seemed. Danced vying with each other,  to please her, while she winked at me. As if to say"They'll **** each other   to get my glad eye"wouldn't I feel jealous? Helpless, I did surrender to her spell,  like others in the line, in my front and back. When just one touch of her index finger,   would evoke magic, I'll get Transformed to a young peacock  of  exquisite beauty, with blue green plumes none have ever seen before,to flaunt at others of the ilk, on seeing it they'd back out. Such a witch is one of a kind,my mind     whispers, it's she who assures me this, On the full moon night, due in a week     we'll fly to the far away  hill where She'll be with me helping to build a nest, turning to a peafowl herself, She'll lay a dozen eggs, yes, in  to my ear, she says, this is only later, h When, she with index finger will    gently touche me and proclaim, thus: "This is the peacock I enticed and    with my witchcraft ,bound for life"

The witch and the Peacock
Pain or pleasure? A poison picked, A moment missed. Ingested, Until you're sick. Every measure, Enticed so quick. Embraced, Brick by brick. Oh, Hugs of concrete.

Coming from unknown shores, arrived these Western boats, with disastrous as well as deceitful tactics they took our gold, jump to the modern era, they are the ones' promoting *** they bare minimum death rates due to *** and Aids, while African's lives in bitter ruins as the notion of "safe *** seems perplex. *** promotion misconstrued as our kids continue ****** the old, Such consequences were never told, when they sold us back our own gold. Systematical control is now the definer of societies Africans not taught of Qamatha but tested on Socrates, African souls enticed into materialism by paper and cheese, while Western supremacists economically ****** African Identities. African child, fight back please!

in the heart of the night a slice of moonlight cascading beckoned i rouse its mesmerizing lure gently stirs a hazy remembrance entranced from shadows i emerge hearkening its echo you’re dreaming awaken its shimmering light engulfed me prying open my stubborn eyes in the onyx darkness its silver glow enticed me outside i stood silent whilst glistening dewdrops danced on my toes a sterling lunar crescent enlightening midnight softly serenades me wake up life’s a trance you’re hypnotized mesmerized in an ocean of emptiness i heard a celestial orb calling and ne’er slept again ©2016janetaylor

the moon serenades me
She heard that he’s a poet and wondered if he would write a poem about her. A wave of her shoulder length strands of pleasure should flag down nearly any man with an ounce of testosterone. She wondered if she had a poem in her hair. She spoke a few soft words layered with one of her smiles, the kind most guys adore because they don’t know if it means to come closer or to leave her alone. Perhaps a poem rested in her smile. If she had cleavage like Jayne Mansfield surely he would form lines about her in his mind and feel compelled to tell the world how she captured his lust. She wished for ******* with a poem in her cleavage. She touched him. He seemed open to her arm around his waist. A poet felt like any other man. She pressed closer; perhaps he sensed a poem in the warmth of her lean figure. Later in bed, he stayed close, their legs entangled unlike anything she could remember. She wondered if there had been a poem in her ***** She wished she smoked and noticed that he didn’t. Perhaps if they shared a cigarette he would be enticed by the drift of the smoke from her lips. Was there a poem in her sensual exhaling? He seems so Hemingway, mysterious, yet open to each moment. Her mind played his movements like a video tape recorder. She wondered if she should write a poem about him? Was there a poem in this experience?

Will He Write About Me?
Your tall body has always enticed me Your long arms have kept me safe Your scruffy beard makes me smile And your smile makes me melt Your hands hold mine and make me feel loved And wipe away the tears Enough of these superficial reasons Your love has comforted me Your humor has made me laugh (Until I snort) Your words have made smile And cry But always out of love Your generosity Has never left me empty handed No matter how much I beg you To keep your money for yourself Your caring heart reminds me I'm not alone Somehow you stopped the shaking trembling in my anxious thoughts You brought me back to reality You stopped me from dying You stopped me from hurting myself You stopped me from starving From expelling the contents of my stomach But most of all you gave me hope A reason to carry on A reason to fight my mind To tell the mirror it's a liar To throw my blades away And eat whatever I want A reason to keep living And to love myself I know you don't feel good enough But look at all this evidence Change the criteria in your head The requirement of "good enough" Should only contain one thing You All you have to be is you To be good enough for me Because I ******* love you

School days in winter Were such fun Without a care, When we were young. At recess we'd slide On ice, Build our forts, Duck and fight. The firemen Beneath starlight, Would flood our schoolyard, Whet appetites For hockey games Between senior classes; We'd skate and shoot, Fall on our ***** Such joy and fun, And no one lost. The bell would sound, Then we'd toss Our wet socks On school room Rads. His and hers Like banners waving, Drying, hissing, Choking, aging. Impatiently we'd sit and wait, Do our math And conjugate; The clock's hands, Frozen, Watched from The wall, At last the lunchtime Bell would ring, And we'd get bundled Once again. Before heading home We're enticed To slide once more On hard, grey ice.

Winter School Days
What do you want from me? I ask my memories, Wondering why they’ve come out to play, Tap dancing across the wood floors of me mind, Creating a cacophony that echoes off my skull. What do you want from me? I hear them when they respond, “We’re trying to make you safe.” I know they’re attempting to prevent tumbling off the same rocks, Trying to ensure I don’t crack bones on the same hard places. They are telling me to avoid having pieces of me stolen again. I couldn’t protect myself at thirteen or sixteen, So I stumbled down the same dark alleys until I was 18 And paid a grander price in an even darker cave at 19. I’m 22 now, and I’m still picking up the pieces out of the mouths of men, Men who cut me down until I was a conglomerate of bite size, fuckable pieces. I was taught not to scream when my pieces were being consumed. Who needs to be a whole human anyway? If tip money went into my pocket, If he told me he loved me afterwards, If I was alive to see the morning light, Who was I to complain? And when I stopped wanting to see the sun rise, They gazed upon my pieces And berated me for the wreckage. What do you want from me? Is a question I only know how to ask myself. I have never dared ask those who stole from me Whether they came to me in good faith, Never had the wisdom to lock up what was valuable. I have never demanded of anyone what their intentions were, So I ask again: What do you want from me? What am I expected to provide? Am I allowed to be a whole human here? Or will you require I be bite size again? I am desperate to be safe in the same flesh that once enticed those who hunted me. What do you want from me? I’ll tell you what I want. I want to go home whole, Knowing my skin is all mine.

Im not addicted Im obsessed And my drug of choice Is one of the best I owe you everything And thats exactly what you took The moment I met you You enticed me with your look I was dying to try you Now im simply dying Cause they took you away And my insides are crying You kept me safe And always confidant Now my friends are afraid That I've lost my common sense But if you got high You'd put your morals aside And if this brings me closer to death I think im ready to die.

A Tribute To Ecstasy
The scent of the pollen allured her, hanging in the still air of the morning. She would stop in her travel and visit each flower that she found. The precious nectar oozed from deep within the petals and she would thirstily drink at each one. She would gently land in the scented shade of each blossom and coax the precious nourishment from it. She never gorged, but rather drank from each flower what it was willing to give. Some were full and over ripe and bursting with the honeyed juice. Others had a smaller treasure, but she would drink lovingly of their gift leaving them an offering of pollen as a thanks. Her small, delicate tongue would gently lick and probe the recesses of the flower hunting the sweetness inside. The pollen on her coat would touch with the very deepest innards of the bloom and enter its very core. Her gift, as she suckled each part, was imparted into the scented womb of the softly petaled blossom. Each flower awaited her coming and spread wide it’s scented opening for her to enter. Their swollen pistils would be gorged with the potential for life and their gently glistening stamens would tempt her to feed on their sticky juices. The soft buzzing of her wings caressed the delicate parts of the fragrant blooms with a gentle breeze as she drank her sustenance. She sheltered in the colored shade of petals, hung round her like colored sheets, as she took what each one had to offer. When she was done she would move on to the next, slowly and deliberately milking the juice of life from each one. Every flower needed her and each one did what it could to tempt her in. Some threw heavy fragrance into the air so she could catch their scent while others bared their large and swollen glands so she could see their abundance. She traveled from bloom to bloom, sometimes enticed by the shaded shelter, and other times the sight of glistening pollen. But she fed on each one, large and small, and in each one she left her gift. The pollen that she carried would be imparted on each ***** stamen as she fed. The glistening end of the shaft was soft and sticky and waiting for the pollen that would carry on its life. While she fed each day, there was a gardener who tended to her plants. He took gentle care of them, weeding and pruning and tending to their needs. The flowers that she fed on were his future sustenance and he tended her as well. He would follow her sometimes through his garden and watch as she gently buzzed from plant to plant. She was used to his watchful eyes as he watched her drink from each bloom. He knew that his crop depended on her and he would peer into the bedding of petals as she caressed the sweetness from each one with her tongue. Her long tongue would probe deep into the recesses of the fragrant flower and find every drop of nectar. The gardener watched as she carried on the cycle of life for him and would wait for days to see the swollen fruits of her labor burgeoning from his plants. When she left each flower satisfied with their delicious treat, she would fly off to the next, not knowing that a seed would be swelling in the gorged pistil that she just left. And so it went as the bee buzzed her life away every day. The gardener would be there among his carefully tended crops, watching and waiting as she moved among the flowers. His gaze would follow her as she traveled through the foliage and landed amongst the blooms. Every day he would watch as she coaxed the sweet nectar from each one and left her gift in return.

The flickering lamp in your hand sways as if to swim in peace to me the lily scenting a warm ponder ripples from the apple of my eye and bobs across to bid approach blooming with a soft absorbing sigh which enters an essence close to reach Your touch colludes in a light lashed usher enticed to where my heart will sing of finding lithe spirit mute from flesh I slide into choral waters with longing for the wonder of a parting life wish Drumming soft as butterfly strokes swishing in the night so close and so remote she could vanish into poppy fields at any moment but will never leave my sight fluttering I swim onward.. I swim out..

The Lady with the Lamp
Crumpled on a ***** door mat, left by the cats - the owl is just a loose bag of feathers now - empty talons curled, and one fierce eye turned over its shoulder. "What soft flesh enticed you to the ground?" Lifting the mat, I remember waking at night to the trilling call – a silvery vein wrapped in the dark energy of hunger. “All things die and too soon...” I say aloud, my own eye sinking into that inky well. The vacant perch leaning over my shoulder. "What is to become of my flesh, my soul?" "It's the waking that counts," I think, "and the meeting." For a moment I wake again - grateful for the living.

Screech Owl
1573 To the bright east she flies, Brothers of Paradise Remit her home, Without a change of wings, Or Love’s convenient things, Enticed to come. Fashioning what she is, Fathoming what she was, We deem we dream— And that dissolves the days Through which existence strays Homeless at home.

To the bright east she flies
I think in statistics, and you in heartbeats. I am. You are. I am. You are. I am chemical-based, you are a meaningful scar. You explore, covet, and hoard, anything near you. While I am stuck, looking at my addiction, through a lens. I am forever cursed: to skim for importance, to look only at the bigger picture, to glance only with logic's borrowed eye, but you are here beside me, and you take in every little detail. To me, blood is but a fluid, yet in your eyes, it is the fuel for lovers and the ink for poetry. You are feather pens, I am erasable chalk. The insomniac that is so filled with dreamer-talk. So enticed by the world, that you couldn’t close an eye. My mind is logic, reasoning, and your complete opposite. Every word has a different meaning in your perspective and every syllable holds a secret—      one you must find out. I am textbooks and punctuality and schedules. But you, you are the only person I can wait on. This is a cycle with ragged edges, bizarre. I am. You are. I am. You are. We are combined; a marvelous oxymoron.

A Marvelous Oxymoron.
I am torn in two. My head pulls one way My heart pulls the other. I am torn in two. I am drawn by the future I should want And enticed by the one I actually do. I am torn in two. My mind follows the plan of the man who loves me My eyes follow the man who never will. I am torn in two. One half is content with the way things will be. The other half yearns for the lives I will never live.

I'm facing the horizon, reclining in the cool grass, staring deeply into the pink and purple sky. It is an exemplary evening and I am enticed by its extravagance. I contemplate existence. I contemplate all our lives: The gnat licking sweat of my brow, You, Me, That tree across the street, Your dead friends, my ancestors, that hot Latina chick that works at Panara (not that I really eat at Panara). The undercover cop that won't stop eyeing me. I watch the pink fade into purple fade into nothing at all. The clouds disperse, becoming nothing more than disconnected particles of dirt and water  suspended in midair, and the sun goes down. I **** the gnat and go home.

The fragility of us.
She was the glittering fairy In the books, But those who knew Of the fairy Tinker Bell, Told another truth. For hook was never after Pan He was to hook a fairy, Was his plan. She had them hooked On Dust, Each morning They would snort the glitter, Then once again Before dusk. Those of weak soul Could not take the toll, Blood would seep from there, Eyes Ears & nose. Feed to the croc With a clock ticking, Also addicted to Lost boy flesh Glazed, Glittered, Eyes, Of a hunger untold Peter Pan   He flew to our world, Not for Friendship Or for fun, But to replace those fallen Dismembered, Hacked, carved, All by tinkers wand. They were Feed to the croc, When all were asleep High on dust They never did ask, Where the others had gone. Enticed by a far away land, Those who were taken Never again to see home. The lost boys In a far off Land. Peter her protector, From the man, The one with a hook for a hand. Stories sing a different tune, For it was tinker bell Who magically removed This limb called hand, To quench its hunger, Fed it to croc Now the beast has a Taste for the man. No ill does hook hold Against Pan, But a sword Must be put   Through this child, Who thinks he is man. For hook is the only one Who can rid this land, Of the twisted dealer Of dust, Who wishes To enslave this land.
