Wish I could stop time or make it last longer Feeling on your vibes, emotions getting stronger The longer I ponder, the more I grow fonder I can't be around you There ain't no telling what i might do I don't know if you can take it It's too big, I might break it Little waist tight dress I can’t take it Your body shakin eyes looking at me like your for my taking our bodies groove In our grooves This kinda love is for the makin Dancing like we two halves of one making The moment sacred Reading your body language picturing you naked screamin my name like its your favorite I make your body do things So your soul can savor it Makin love until your ears ring to our vibe vibrating as we do our thing you cumin first until it’s past tense Got a few things on my mind Baby you are a hottie Out of everybody I want your body

Daydream
After the DJ dimmed down the lights One look at you I can tell it's gonna be a long night I don't know if you can take it It's too big, I might break it Little waist tight dress Your body shakin Eyes Looking at me like your for the takin The way our bodies groove make our bodies move like love is for the makin Dancing like we naked dancin close like its sacred Reading your body language Screaming my name like i’m your favorite I make your body do things Making love until your ear rings Screaming out loud, speaking nonsense make you *** first until is past tense

That Love is all there is
he once said to me...                  *“I would blow warm                          moist breath through                                           your toes...                            I would do all the                   wonderful things                 to your big toes                   that you do to me.                       And most certainly                          all the tension would                                drain onto me...                                I would draw                                 every last drop                                from your toes                           with little messages                          along the way of my                       charted course                          to come up                       your inner channels.         Resting in the sensitive eddies         behind your knees   we both breathe fire     wafting up and down                          your thighs.”* .... like drips of seduction off his tongue. And he lingered on, saying...                    *“Flaming lips wafting              together with desire,        reaching and pulling           with firey licks.        As I slide    my wet tongue     on up and hover,            breathing                      you in                            deeply...                            through my nostrils                          filling my *** senses.                        Drunk on your fumes,                 I'm consumed.            Circling the tip        of my nose    around your hard,    pearly knot        feeling the heat              from your butterfly wings             my parted lips surounding           and easing the warmth      of my soul onto you with wet hot breath.    And I ease the length           of my tongue to rest       completely over     your fire breathing wings ,                warm capable and ready..                    leaving you in suspense.                       Sliding ever so slightly                            and slowly up your                                     slick silky lips,                      tightening the tip                    of my tongue -                       flick flick                              flick flick...              And I look deeply            into your eyes,                   into depths                     you've never known.                        And then I'll take you                         all in, with a suction                            you'll never escape                              or ever want to.       Never breaking eye contact my tongue slides from bottom         and presses, emphasis          at the top slowly         over and over             settling you in.                 We fall into                    a oneness                         and find                           our groove.”* And I said... ** *“I wish I wasn't still irritated with you so I could fully enjoy your seduction.”* **

I can’t seem to figure it out. I will sit here for the rest of my life. I’m okay with hitting my head of a wall resilient until I figure it out. Patience, a virtue from what I hear. maybe the key ingredient. But, how long can I wait? How long until there is some salvation? I want to see your smile one more time, Not in a photo. I want to see your smile right in front me, So close that I can touch it So I can run my fingers across every groove inside your lips. I look at you with desperate eyes but you see past them. You spit in distaste and hate, As if I am nothing, As if I had never held any relevance to your life.

Patience.
Be my novel tonight Allow me to navigate the depths of your thoughts and journey through the pathways of your mind while merging in my imagination and infusing in my wildest poetic fantasies.  Inscribing in our bedpost an unforgettable bestseller. Be my music tonight Let me groove to the beat of your heart picking up pace as I explore new ways to invoke melodious outbursts. I want to sing a duet with you of synchronized moans and pleasurable sighs.  Culminating with you belting out my name in one final perfect note. Be my masterpiece tonight Permit me to trace my fingertips across every inch of your frame as I find your sensually stimulating spots. Armed with new knowledge and intent, sit back as I stroke you with my brushes of desire and take you on a creative adventure of twists and turns as I bring to life my finest work of art and watch with all anticipation your love erupt. © Tina Thompson

Inspire Me
I was treated like the VIP, A cat and a big fish, A hook and a big Six, whilst visiting madam bow-peeps rotisserie of ***** Always receptive, Wearing open silk working 9 to 5am. With a little overtime, hot funk never satisfies, She had the way-with-all to feign, delight; even interest, before negotiating the price, Two shekels, She was classy, kind of slick, she tickled my ears for nothing more than kindness, a small token in exchange for a smile. She popped on a tune, as she took off her dress. The petting started her two hands tugging with the zipper of my jeans. A woman's touch... Ha HA, the rich sultry kiss of ***** tight and tasty; ***** like a ripe tomato, Sugar fried and drunk. She opened her legs, her hair smelled like shampoo, She was on her belly, knees tucked up as I took in the fruit, deep holes filled with **** and shabby fingers, hollow spit and angry poison, head spinning to the groove, loud and high, The bed squeaked and a single light bulb dangled like a loose tooth, Ten minutes and two ******* love songs! Sick and spent up, I got dressed to leave, I said with a poke, "I couldn't get laid, Not even in a ***** house!" And now I'm back in the cold again, only dirtier.

The ********** inspired by William & Don G
Deadbeat street heat Dust on the window Like the dead of night Screaming like a crow I didn't mean to fall down But that's what happens when you move And as long as you're around Can you help me keep the groove? In the storm, keep me warm Under blankets or your arms Tune the magic of your mind And let me breathe in your charm When the loneliness is killing me And I know it's killing you Would you mind if I rang you up, To help me see it through? Today is lazy, tomorrow's crazy I won't worry until then Because right now is where I'm in And this dream will never end Have you thought much about me Since the sun rose in the West? Because I haven't been able to keep you out Though I haven't tried, I guess

Smile, I Don't Want to Forget You.
Thin and transluscent Fabricated sheet Clumsy piece Tickling with every groove Of the winter's breeze. Its flow was a mirror of her aura Of her external beauty Of how fierce she was Every time she exposes her curves. Her fake smile was a frown She was tore apart from her soul For who she was A manequin by herself. (7/2/14 @xirlleelang)

Lovely Sheer Dress
Two ticks click through my ears fuego leapt from steel grasp to burn destroying as it flares across the valley Smoke billowed into the clutches of hard, purple plastic pressing in from all sides funneled into sacks of tendrils. They cringe grey swirls choking off pipes and blood lines Veins bursting with new chemicals Spewed out over the burnt plains But the valley is just a small groove on a burnt out, tired brain

Stoner Poem
I walk through campus wearing black leggings and those faded, leather boots. I’m even wearing an infinity scarf I bought full price at Anthropologie and a pair of tiger-striped cat eye sunglasses. **** I look good. On top of it, I’m smoking a Parliament menthol, my red-lined lips whipping smoke into the dead air, creating a grey cloud that some would call cancerous and others, **** But no one notices me, and, candidly, I am okay with that because I notice me, and I am a big red dance button that demands to be pushed. So, I push myself and groove down the brown brick road all the way to classroom 114 in the science building.

For Naomi Lazard Sometimes I can't wait until I look like Nadezhda Mandelstam. -- Naomi Lazard My friends are tired. The ones who are married are tired of being married. The ones who are single are tired of being single. They look at their wrinkles. The ones who are single attribute their wrinkles to being single. The ones who are married attribute their wrinkles to being married. They have very few wrinkles. Even taken together, they have very few wrinkles. But I cannot persuade them to look at their wrinkles collectively. & I cannot persuade them that being married or being single has nothing to do with wrinkles. Each one sees a deep & bitter groove, a San Andreas fault across her forehead. "It is only a matter of time before the earthquake." They trade the names of plastic surgeons like recipes. My friends are tired. The ones who have children are tired of having children. The ones who are childless are tired of being childless. They love their wrinkles. If only their were deeper they could hide. Sometimes I think (but do not dare to tell them) that when the face is left alone to dig its grave, the soul is grateful & rolls in.

Wrinkles
Drop Drop into the deep end, new faces daily right up to the weekend, the realization of your current situation yet to set in. some are looking for retribution, others caught in eternal confusion, thinking they see the end of the path but it's just a delusion, hardly any one making moves, many of them are just goons, blue baboons. there's only a righteous few, making daily moves, which they can prove, as they get out the shelters, into a new home quite soon. so look towards the new moon, get into the groove, for you have yet to bloom, don't let the place consume you. © Try

You are the town and we are the clock. We are the guardians of the gate in the rock. The Two. On your left and on your right In the day and in the night, We are watching you. Wiser not to ask just what has occurred To them who disobeyed our word; To those We were the whirlpool, we were the reef, We were the formal nightmare, grief And the unlucky rose. Climb up the crane, learn the sailor's words When the ships from the islands laden with birds Come in. Tell your stories of fishing and other men's wives: The expansive moments of constricted lives In the lighted inn. But do not imagine we do not know Nor that what you hide with such care won't show At a glance. Nothing is done, nothing is said, But don't make the mistake of believing us dead: I shouldn't dance. We're afraid in that case you'll have a fall. We've been watching you over the garden wall For hours. The sky is darkening like a stain, Something is going to fall like rain And it won't be flowers. When the green field comes off like a lid Revealing what was much better hid: Unpleasant. And look, behind you without a sound The woods have come up and are standing round In deadly crescent. The bolt is sliding in its groove, Outside the window is the black removers' van. And now with sudden swift emergence Come the woman in dark glasses and humpbacked surgeons And the scissors man. This might happen any day So be careful what you say Or do. Be clean, be tidy, oil the lock, Trim the garden, wind the clock, Remember the Two.

You and I are a starry match. Astronomers throughout the ages have known why. According to them, you are quite the catch You are my darling Gemini. We are both always on the move, We both have multiple personalities, We two are like a bump and a groove. We both hate being brought down to a fake reality. A great match, deep down at heart. You and me, Gemini and Sagittarius, It’s a fantastic start. The only thing better is a ****** Aquarius. Oh, why did the angels cry? We are meant to be, you and I. From the heavens, we hear the exasperated sigh. We are meant to be, my loving sweet Gemini.

Frustration building like water on the stove Trying to reach out but constantly get stuffed down Into the unknown grove which vibes to a different groove Trying to stay out of the way but can’t seem to move Your words feel like waves pulling me under I can feel it in my slumber

Words like Waves
Her body looks touchy in the light, I urge to play with her all night. Yes, she says and I hold her softly’ I take a deep breathe, to confirm if she’s ready. She didn’t mind, and i proposed for a birthday gift, she can’t say yet. I run one hand up her neck touching her makes me wanna peck For I love kissing.   Across her body, my right hand goes, I have been practicing, believe me, it shows. Another deep breath, the tension reduce staying focus, every moment dues Boldly toast her to the room' She gently stand up, no offends and we move. Getting to the room I gently push her to the wall I make her feel the groove My vibes and my moves Triggers her to do With my two hands, I grab her head while kissing her She close her eyes and French we go. So deep and no, i need to go’ she pull me back. The sounds and feelings grow more immense The movements, become more intense My heart stops as I see the door open Her mom walks in and says; Your guitar is too loud, please turn it down. And she reply’ ok mom. Well, I’m a bad boy trying to be relevant. She forwardly push me to the bed Stylishly she unzip my jean and holds my **** While she **** the head She fingers herself and makes me lick. At the long run, I inserted my sim. She took her face off as she feels the hit She screams and still pulling me in, While I diligently *** her with styles She wonder, who am I Four rounds we go Hard and slow She feels light and dope She’s smiles and says that’s your birthday *** BOB

Inaction in action A most frightening thing Eyes flash from green to brown Was that a smile or one of your cute frowns? I can’t tell up from down In this vacant hole I feel like I am supposed to remember Impact has dried up Like a drought that makes farmers Wonder if their crop ever did flourish Or if the dust simply snuck into their heads With paintbrushes and vivid imaginations Of what fresh picked berries once tasted like I want to run Faster than ever to where I once was To where my emotions began To when a kiss was still intoxicating And you smiled at clasped hands Mirrors in my mind turn Reflections of you blur Engraved lessons I’ve learned Were you ever my home? I trace the walls of your character Each knot and groove familiar Reflexive fingertips Gliding over walls as they turn inside out I forgot what all this was about Do I long for a light that once shown Or just another culpable excuse To regain the throne My wishful thinking kingdom Though my senses are honed To both authenticity and mirage I fear I am equally prone Even so. If… If you were ever Or still are And we cross paths again Or maybe for the first time Kiss me with your brown eyes Or were they green? And I will try my best to recognize A love I fear I’ve never seen But I can’t muster pursuit when consciousness is stolen by a dream Inaction in action Is a most frightening thing

I’ll be sitting on the fence; until the cows come home, You can steal my thunder, and you can break my bones. Blood is thicker than water and you’re the apple of my eye, you may steal my thunder, but you're a blessing in disguise, Because honey! You're just so easy on the eye, It’s true I’m shallow; but you're so easy on the eye. I like the way you walk, I like the way you talk, I like the way you move, I like the way you groove, I like the way you scream, I like the way you shout, I like the way you spit, (Swollow) I like the way you pout! Because honey You're just so easy on the eye, It's trues you're a monster; but you're so easy on the eye!

Easy on the eye
I swear I could visualize my skeleton With so much more clarity than before I could see how whole it was Despite all my missing parts My skeleton keeps on flowing through the motions, The same bones groove together with purpose. I owe my surprisingly healthy bones more than I give I feel more whole as a skeleton Please remove the rest My motions will be smooth and conscious Like water dripping from the faucet, my fingers will tap with impatience. Like a wheel tumbling down a hill, My old bones will follow They are the key to freedom No wonder. The key that opens every door Is called the skeleton key.

Hypnotic music, joyous sounds surround The fans, all entranced by the performers. The drummer happily bashes and pounds Everything he sees shaped like cylinders. The hi-hat steadily keeps the rhythm, The bass drum makes a thud, quite powerful. The crowd can't help but nod along with him As he makes these beats so insatiable. The cymbals create such fearful crashes, And his finely tuned snare shoots roaring pops Hurtling towards the off-guard masses, This manic madness just can't seem to stop! What exactly does he have left to prove? *He simply wants to see everyone groove!*

21st Century Drummer Boy
The rush The grace The feeling I get when I dance My heart beating faster and faster and faster Until everything falls silent Its me And the music Just Me And the rhythm My heart is beating, my feet are moving My head is spinning, I hit it A switch turns on inside of me I’m in it to win it now I want that platinum, I want to make you proud of me I want to be the dancer you want me to be But ballet, thats not it. You ruined this, you told me I wasn’t good enough Point your toes, lift your chin, hold your leg higher Do this, do that. Who cares? Do I look like a prima ballerina to you? I am not tall, I am not lanky I am not skinny, I am not light And I’m sorry but I have ***** You can push me, Stretch me, pull me in all different directions To do what? Make me more flexible, more graceful, more you You have beaten me down with your words, so much that the one thing I loved most in the world has slowly been slipping away from me Dance doesn’t define who I am, It is who I am. Dance is me I am dance I’m big ***** I have strong muscles I’m not graceful, when you tell me to hit it hard, I hit it with intensity, with power Don’t ask me to prance around in a pink tutu. I won’t. Put me in harem pants, and a baggy sweatshirt Throw some beats down And I’ll groove it Pop it, slide it, lock it Sharp sharp smooooooth So many different moves, Some don’t even have names No Fouetté, or jeté No relevé, or adagio What do these even mean? Do I look french to you? I’d rather body roll Chest pop And just let my body do the talking I don’t dance to impress you I don’t dance to please your needs I don’t dance for high scores I dance to express the words I cannot speak

It's not OCD I'm just anal-rententive. There are two coffee urns in my office kitchenette. Each urn has a spot to place your mug beneath the spigot. Each of these spots has a circular insert of gridded plastic to mark the mug-placement area and allow spilled coffee to flow through so this spot doesn't become just a puddle of coffee soaking the bottom of everyone's mugs. Each of these inserts has three indentations: one on each side at nine and three o'clock small, arcing parabolas like reversed parentheses there to allow someone to get their fingers into the coffee mug spot and under the insert to remove it and, presumably clean it and then another indentation more like a groove or a notch much smaller, thinner, and deeper at the top that fits perfectly with a matching small plastic protuberance jutting from the coffee mug spot where the insert goes. In an almost ****** fashion this protuberance fits into this last indentation this notch this groove to secure the insert in place. For some reason I've never known perhaps laziness perhaps inattentiveness more likely simple couldn't-care-less-ness this insert never seems to be placed into the mug spot properly. It is always placed sideways rotated a quarter-turn so that the larger indentations on the side meant as finger holes are placed top-to-bottom noon and six the small plastic protuberance at the top being swallowed whole by the too-large indentation and its mate the groove meant to hold the plastic piece so tightly is left alone to one side empty and useless. This has always bothered me. Bothered me more than I would like to admit. It's such a simple little thing to get right it would take almost no effort at all and yet, day-after-day someone I don't know who whoever is in charge of these things insists on doing it wrong. And I cannot abide it. So, day-after-day when I go to get my morning coffee I fix it I twist the insert ninety-degrees and secure it in the correct position. Lately I have noticed something. Sometimes when I go to get my coffee one of the inserts will already be fixed. Someone else has seen what I have seen and felt the same had the same response took the same corrective action. This feels like winning something. I don't know what but it definitely smells like Victory. And Conspiracy. And it makes me happy. Happier than I'd like to admit.

It's Not OCD
It's not OCD I'm just anal-rententive. There are two coffee urns in my office kitchenette. Each urn has a spot to place your mug beneath the spigot. Each of these spots has a circular insert of gridded plastic to mark the mug-placement area and allow spilled coffee to flow through so this spot doesn't become just a puddle of coffee soaking the bottom of everyone's mugs. Each of these inserts has three indentations: one on each side at nine and three o'clock small, arcing parabolas like reversed parentheses there to allow someone to get their fingers into the coffee mug spot and under the insert to remove it and, presumably clean it and then another indentation more like a groove or a notch much smaller, thinner, and deeper at the top that fits perfectly with a matching small plastic protuberance jutting from the coffee mug spot where the insert goes. In an almost ****** fashion this protuberance fits into this last indentation this notch this groove to secure the insert in place. For some reason I've never known perhaps laziness perhaps inattentiveness more likely simple couldn't-care-less-ness this insert never seems to be placed into the mug spot properly. It is always placed sideways rotated a quarter-turn so that the larger indentations on the side meant as finger holes are placed top-to-bottom noon and six the small plastic protuberance at the top being swallowed whole by the too-large indentation and its mate the groove meant to hold the plastic piece so tightly is left alone to one side empty and useless. This has always bothered me. Bothered me more than I would like to admit.
