"virtu" poems

Donna leggiadra il cui bel nome honora
L’herbosa val di Rheno, e il nobil varco,
Ben e colui d’ogni valore scarco
Qual tuo spirto gentil non innamora,
Che dolcemente mostra si di fuora
De suoi atti soavi giamai parco,
E i don’, che son d’amor saette ed arco,
La onde l’ alta tua virtu s’infiora.
Quando tu vaga parli, O lieta canti
Che mover possa duro alpestre legno,
Guardi ciascun a gli occhi ed a gli orecchi
L’entrata, chi di te si truova indegno;
Gratia sola di su gli vaglia, inanti
Che’l disio amoroso al cuor s’invecchi.

I dream about the day of meet you
In a café, ordering a beverage of sorts.
Sitting across me, with her own virtu
Pouring her persona like a ravishing resort.
In a scenic beach as beautiful as her eyes
And clouds as soft as her cheeks.
To meet her not by purpose, but an accident
That may seem so far fetched it’s hysterical
In a funny sense. Being in this involvement
That had happened between this blissful
Yet funny event is the best thing to come.
Even though this is simply a dream.

The body bound
Restrained yet open
A masterpiece of living parchment
Da Vinci's virtu of carnal sin
A Maestro playing
Each hill and valley
Tracing want in cross marked pain
Symphonies of tormenting fire
Mapped upon willing skin
Lines etched
Lustful treasures exposed
Flowering petals become the focus
A crack of whip
Drawing outside
Societal maps of propriety
Margins of mind filled
With consuming need
Each strike laid
With a Falls precision
Drawing forth jaggedness
Bordering outcrops of greed
Unrelenting strikes rained down
Igniting pain
Replaced with fire
Driving the body
Until there is no thought, no voice
No place to hide, just
Incoherent whispers
Begging for release
Crescendos pop
As the epicenter is struck
Singled out and singed
Again and again
The body quakes as
Floods roll forth
Pleasure engulfing
The pain mapped body
Muscles pulled taught
Rigid in need
The Maestro
Etches his last mark
Allowing his masterpiece
Of pleasure to be unleashed
