All Comments on 'Caressing Down to My Soul'

Most poems like this are of sub origin.

This one is by a domme.

It is written in the Cap/lower case style

preferred by many in the lifestyle

and found irritating by most who are not.

It is particularly irritating in this poem

because the author capitalizes "You"

at line and sentence starts.

Has She subdued and Dominated him,

the chinese fox?

Vixxx,

I have to say, I am not into the lifestyle and the capitalization does NOT irritate me. I do understand YDD wanting to show his opinion about the style of writing, but I think this is a very good poem and deserves kudos, not criticism. I?m not sure what YDD thought of the body of the poem itself. Maybe, he or she could place another post looking past their dislike of the capitalization and speak of the poem itself.

I loved the poem. To me it was well written and shows me another side of the Vixxx that I did not know existed.

What would you think of the poem if the capitalization were corrected to your taste, YDD?

Wonderful poem Vixxx, and I?m getting antsy waiting for a new breakthrough category story from you!

This comment is directed to YDD - and anyone else that seems compelled to personally attack anyone here for their preferred lifestyle.

Yes, YDD - you have been aware since My first poem; if not My first story on this site, that I am a FemDomme and have chosen to write from that standpoint on several occasions. I have understood, also, that you have deemed yourself a poetry critic while hiding behind a bio page with nothing on it to justify your self proclaimed position as such. And if you are, as rumor has it, one of the more prolific and known authors on this site, and seeking to story stalk in the shadows; then you are not even worthy of this rebuttal. I do not impose My beliefs of the craft onto anyone else, and if My latest poem really "irritates" you in either grammatical structure or topic as you so clearly state; let Me suggest something to you: when you see a submission from Wanton Vixxxen; save yourself personal anguish and aggravation and skulk elsewhere. I take offense to the fact you voted and commented on My works not by their content or merit; but by personal bias. That is not in the true spirit of which I, and other like-minded authors, believe Literotica was created.

I suppose we all should be very grateful that God never submitted The Ten Commandments to Lit. You would have probably given Him your standard "3" or "50" on the meter, and made the world come to an end when you suggested how YOU would have written them better.

Know this.

Wanton Vixxxen

Reading the images that you create, stirs the mind of lusty fantasy, hidden desire, secret wants. Not many would venture to embrace them. Not many know how. But you, my sultry vixen, bring out the deepest wants of any who read, appreciate, and find themselves bound by the words of your thoughts.

I remain, bound to you.

read.

Captures the mental interplay between dom and sub

something that neither side is aware of sometimes.

and, for the record, I understood the capitalization...

And I'm not " in" the lifestyle though I do understand a great deal about it.

Reading sub/dom poetry requires you to have a certain mindset

and they have rules and symbols and such just as do many other life styles and religions .

when i read the bible I assume there are going to be thou's and thee's and smote's and all that ...

and it irritates me

but that's the language it was written in and that's how I have to read it

just my 2 cents

wonderful as always Vixx

Yes, a very special one.

Your criticism of her wonderful poem, with such incredibly sexy images, is unwarranted and not constructive.

What did you hope to accomplish? What's your purpose? I see none, except to aggravate. Congratulations, you did that. Happy? Satisfied? Please, go troll elsewhere.

Ydd, did you ever attempt to learn a foreign language? Probably not. See, foreign languages are NOT what you want them to be. They are what they are. You either accept the challenge or you become the loudmouth American tourist with flowered Hawaiian shirt traveling to a foreign land who speaks to the natives LOUDLY and s-l-o-w-l-y, then complains that nobody pays you any mind. It doesn't work. Best you stick around your own neighborhood, where you're comfortable.

Do you also find it particularly irritating that Einstein wrote equations with symbols, and not plain ol' American English?

How's that for poetry, huh? More your style, ydd?

MISTRESS Vixxx, (I hope that's not too many capital letters for ydd), another penile-erecting poem!!! Since I'm slow to the poetry, I've had to read it 4 times now. As an amateur, I find more meaning, substance, and sexy images with each reading.

I've fetched the cuffs and leash. Will You claim me now? Pretty please?

You are the Domme Grail!

I've read the other comments left... all I can say is: You have got to be kidding! With words of such beauty, people are going to discuss the capitalization? What about the way the lines of the poem weave a complicated relationship between two beings in such distinct roles, with such deep desires? Don't talk about the capitalization that is a part of the lifestyle, talk about the meaning of the WORDS.

I'll stick to prose here; any clumsily crude poetic style on my part would only diminish the power of your words.

But first a word about the absurd issue of Caps. This is a question of style; some Dommes expect this, some don't. Worrying about this is to worry about nonessentials. What fits for the D/s couple is all that matters; the rest is a matter of acceptance by others of your choice.

This is a very hard read demanding a great deal from anyone perusing it. You must be focused - conscious - aware.

Focused on the words and their emotional connotations.

Conscious of your differing emotional responses.

Aware of the meaning of the impact on your inner soul.

There are so many levels at play here in the exploration of the power dynamic. I too read it several times, partly just to savor the intense feel of the dynamic as it progresses. Yet, underlying all the fluid dynamism is the clear understanding of who's the D/s and their respective roles.

While not being in a relationship of this type, it is also obvious that a successful relationship of this sort is very demanding, more so than the typical comfortable vanilla one. But the rewards are much greater for both Domme and sub. Despite appearances which can deceive, both become one and experience passions undreamt by most vanilla pairs. And, unlike their vanilla counterparts, the Domme/sub relationship is a process always evolving - despite the common fantasy story myths.

Now you see the power of your words which pulled me to greater awareness and a desire to do your work justice.

missed voting on this,here it is

I like the push that the capitalization gives. It forces the reader to recognize, even as the sub must, the the Dom is in control. The way a religious fanatic would capitalize "God" even in his mind. There is no escaping the sovereignty of her even as she is becoming aroused.

The dance of control and submission is beautifully portrayed. Pain, passion, need, refusal, the tension is tremendous. And in the end, much as any Dom would do, the whip cracks and we are put back in our place.

I think I'll savor this one a while...

I had to go over this a couple times to really appreciate what you say here. I suppose that this power a woman has over a man can have some aphrodisiac properties. CP
