.....Lingerie Lust
THE PAWN-SHOP man knows hunger, And how far hunger has eaten the heart Of one who comes with an old keepsake. Here are wedding rings and baby bracelets, Scarf pins and shoe buckles, jeweled garters, Old-fashioned knives with inlaid handles, Watches of old gold and silver, Old coins worn with finger-marks. They tell stories.

Desperate kisses Taste roses and peaches Grips hair Breath trembles Desire Lust Craving Yearning Velvet bed Tight flower Hot sheets enchant Untie corset Unhook garters Fingers dance slow circles Pouring wax Stroking oil Soft hips Tongue stroking... Strawberry shudders Unyielding teeth Weak pleasures Sultry sway Heightens raw need, greed **Burst Cherry Exquisite cries Swimming body freely Skin glides ****** Penetrate Damp Rhythm Primitive, Swollen, Ragged, Fevered**                                                                                                 ***

Or did the cliché use me? It infected my mind, stole my words, and left me linguistically bankrupt. Every dog has its day, and yesterday was most certainly not mine. But all’s well that ends well, unless the well is actually a drowning pool, or a rat graveyard. Only Time will tell-unless I cut out its tongue and use its guts for garters. But without Time we’re all Living on a Prayer seeking a Stairway to Heaven borne by our 99 Red Luft Balloons with nothing but Faith, like Major Tom we’re floating away. Will Another One Bite the Dust before the the finale of this Bohemian Rhapsody? Whatever will be will be, and I will set forth my Long and Lonely Hallelujah long locked in my Heart of Gold, because I’m getting old Under Pressure screaming “let me out”-STOP! Hammer Time!  I may be Lost in the Supermarket, but Great Scot! I’ll get my guaranteed personality because in Nana-Land Anything Goes! ~ NM 12/12/18

Womp Womp You Used a Cliché
my party hats have been hacking this green **** pitching these ill bent ravens and Q-tips jinxing the midday with famine and lightning a brite spot of bother and dead garlands... hard garters and soft mottoes murmured in wisdom of dimwits a false lovely. needing things kills and kills often god ponders yonder as we dismiss... but taunt. you gain a third world to keep your clean mind soiled in brine to pickle the pickle indeed. and you haven't any sugar in your tea.

Though I wear no crown of decadent jewels pressed down around my brow, It can be said that I am beautiful. Needing no assistance from a mask of make-up and every hair doing as it pleases, I am told that I am beautiful. Without the burden of corsets, push-ups and garters; no cocktail dress draping my shoulders, I look in the mirror and am satisfied. I wear blue jeans, t-shirts and tank tops; tennis shoes, flip-flops and high-tops, And still my legs are long and lean; my shape curvy and full. And while I walk by, a southern sway in my step, you know you take more than a cursory glance. I have attitude, and bluntness inherited from my line of honest folk. I am country. I am bold. I am ruthless. I am simple in the way that diamonds are simply compressed carbon. I am beautiful in the way that only a southern girl can be. I am a huntress with my 243 across my lap in a camo blind. I am an actress as I smile and say “Bless your heart.” I am a lover if there ever was one. I am a fighter when the chips are down. I am my father’s nightmare and my mother’s dream. See me with my mut from the pound that’s better trained than your frou-frou, AKC registered pom-poo. Join me as I sing the hymns my granny sang with the same tone and inflection. I am educated with my poor country grammar I use only to spite those who think I’m ignorant. I know more about tracking a blood trail than I do about propriety, But I’m studied in the art of being couth. My southern charm is mixed with brazen straight forwardness. I am proud. I am American. I am beautiful.

these are but sagas for lovers and haters in love who love to hate but are in hate with love these poems of couples who exist to exist and to redefine Is these are but stories for the sons of bleary eyed fathers who tread the same threads across dilated garters and heroic stoics be proud! these are but fables of folly and of transparent whim of hunters’ beguilement of huntresses’ **** of mechanical males who practise old tricks these are but tales of maidens and heads of neverending aims nevertheless transfixed these are but poems of Envy and Trust poems that unbe the unfair for the sake of unlove and while mechanical feelers probe seas of flesh dealers and reels of film cast doubts of Enough these are still but poems of Trust

My soul has known heavenly places Once I slept on the shores of light Before my soul learned its name I once saw the aching darkness split And matter was born from *** I slithered among the foundations of the earth And made my bed in the tall grass Pure bliss and warmth were mine There the whispered revelation was my lullaby I watched as suns were born Dim beings of ultraviolet laughter It was much easier To see and understand Before time was invented From the mind and body A cancer of spirit was born Its whisperings were the first ego Evolved so or created It truly matters not For the bird knows nothing of war Or beauty

Over Men and Horses Hoops and Garters Lastly Through a Hogshead of Real Fire
Cuts hidden by garters. Bruises hidden by pearls. No one can tell what hair you're missing if you put them in cute little curls. But it's not a man at stake, for it was you wielding the blade. You did give him your heart for his words. Indeed, what a nice little trade. So when you're on the edge of your life, because of a sinister night for two. Just remember it's all your fault, and jump when given the cue.

Blue skies, timeless hover past my skin indifferent as a grader bypassing that watery definite sky of yours Here were a few laws of space hate music this cannot block escaping the ear of an Illuminati can leaving temporarily, and fading unlike static earth plummeting near Now isn't she gone in the wilderness I can sit against death not so blessed cat-wired, nothing then, and was, given to a few destinations You have lifted your hand up out of that den of garters from fixed seeds either not to be kissed, that isn't complex when you rejected to be caressed to death.

Caressed To Death
In the sea the sirens call I jump from that castles’ wall The garters and gates won’t hold me in For she had come calling, once again My love, the sea, how she wailed and cried I needed return and be at her side But how fate could turn its cruel head, For my treachery had forced her head to bed I nest myself in the sands of guilt Lying in her froth, a hand on the hilt Guilt, a sword, pins me here Your froth meets me to come and leer I know that I could not stay true So now my lover, here I come and join with you.

Return to the sea
*Time forgets progression Every time you move and dress, And cover yourself with silk, satin, lace,      With hooks and garters, With garments and clothing Starting from small, tight and light To large and loose,      And soft and cottony, That I can almost feel everything      In my mouth, my tongue, yet You are all too smooth to me, Elegant, sophisticated, a walking flame, That there's almost nothing there to touch All red, white, all pink, all bloom,      No flower nor petal, All root, all stem, all fruit, All pollens and butterflies, and juice, All juice, all round, all curved,      All bare, all time.* © 2015 J.S.P.

Lipstick wax and three-day-old mascara Recycled for the weekend The wash has been put off Use the same lace thongs and silk garters as last Friday’s wear Still damp with the stench of alcohol and Irish sweat Paint red polish over the chewed, grimy nails On the hand that just wiped down the plate in the microwave Molded over with bubbled broth and melted cheese Slip on ‘Loubutons’ over cracked, blistered feet And slick on clumped cream over the erupting zits Forming near the dripping hairline Which itself has been plastered with industrial hairspray Shove extra cushion in that shredded brassiere That’s passed off as styled and lacy every Saturday morning One last glance in the cracking mirror Flashing a cigarette-stained smile And winking with a crusted eye Then finally off to dance and melt the cover away And display the foul of beauty

Foul of Beauty
Hooking bullets from the muscle, I took just enough to get me out, out of these discipled digs of occidental artifice. Saw virtue, as a patient bound found floating with the carcasses, in oceans of our artless composition. So sickened by my part in this repulsive codependency, I'll charter me another sleep, usurp the gutless drone to shave my head the stillborn dream I open up my arteries the garters of my cartilage and bone....

See how the others live garnish your morning gruel with gossips makes your cold porridge taste just a bit better search out the tit-bits and the juicy blue parables all from the House of Windsors can never be fake-news when Princes bed seventeen aged maiden cold teas taste hot gloom and doom means pep-ups, a smile and a spring to their steps in rarefied air the stench of the ghettos and the belches from drains should whiff in polluting and disturbing the perfumery of gentility and why not...do they hear the cries of the motherless babies or listen to the frustrations of the thieves having a no dice day as Joan sells her body to pay the loan-arranger yesterday and Jason is so bothered looking for a fix down the alley do they know Roger took his own life cos he had no job yes to sit and hear of the pain and sufferings high above makes cold toasts and bacon of-cuts that much sweeter and as the kettle whistles away they hope the vapour clears the grimes of trodden lives and deadend roads and rain hot molten ashes on the Semites and Giles and madam in the big house up in the green Hills and the Garters and Coronets all burn in Hell with their socks on......

The Golden Age of Stripping II
I have left behind all aquiescence, disrobed past motives of pleasing the crowd. I no longer dress in former passivity and never defend any conformity. Compliance, from now on, is simply not me. For sanity's sake I sent flat brogues to charity centres and became re-invented. Circumventing subservience and any pretence I wear independence boldly. To any lesser degree of non-submissiveness my control I shall never release. Men refer to me now as "Miss Self-Assurance" in tight nets and high heels. So better not mess with my new-found feeling on pure contumaciousness. I might resent it, wear your ties for my garters and not be too nice. Beware this flighty new woman is known to bite.

New Woman
Kim (one of my BFF) brightened with inspiration, “Oooo! Send him a **** pic!” “I’m NOT going to sext a guy out of the BLUE,” I grumbled, indignantly. Kim turned to her phone, “No, No, of COURSE not.” She said as she texted. “Come on” she said, as she pulled me off my chair and out the door. We raced over, on foot, to my friend Bili’s house (two houses away). We entered without knocking (as usual) and ran upstairs. Bili lay on her stomach on her unmade bed, fiddling with her phone, ankles up and crossed but she twisted up to attention when we came in. “What should we do first?” She said, as if there were a million things to do. They set upon me and had my regular clothes off in a heartbeat. Like all makeovers, this had a prelapsarian purity - the ritual stripping down to blankness before rebuilding. They quickly went through about half of Bili’s closet - selecting just the right combination of ****** and classy clothes designed to ****** They finally settled on a black slip under an ivory peignoir, stockings with garters and black strappy heels. Kim twisted my hair up into a loose “Gibson Girl.” “Hold still,” Bili said, as she grasped my chin and expertly blended red, gold and black glittery eyeshadows followed by lip liner and gloss. “This is just a quickie job,” she reminded me. I stared at this strange version of myself in the vanity. Kim frowned and looking around, she spread a pink scarf over the desk light to give the room a rosy glow. They went into studio mode - posing me in various ways from coquettish to bored lounging - suggesting expressions and taking endless pictures with my phone. Finally, they were satisfied and handed me my phone. “Shall we go through them?” Bili asked “Naah,” I said, “I’ll go through ‘em and pick one - or two.” Later, at home, I looked through them - I looked SO different - and I had to admit - **** even. But was that ME? I cringed, what if my mom saw these ****** Kardashian-like photos somewhere? I never sent them. I thought I’d have to explain it to my girls. “HA!” They laughed, “We KNEW you’d never use ‘em” Bili said, as Kim shook her head “Nope.” “It was fun though!” We all agreed. . . . *NOTE: This is a pre-pandemic story from August 2019. I was 15 - the idea wasn’t to ****** this guy, it was to get his interest so he would ask me out 🙃*
