Click hereJ. L. David's painted lips-
Those of a sex-symbol
And every word is sensual
Shaped by such a mouth
She knows it
Every time she succumbs
In spite of herself
These latest words
Guide her again to the
Cliff edge of his bed
He didn't bother
To discard the blue and red uniform
This time
Her lips try to find
Their equilibrium
He knows she is afraid of soldiers.
As she silently damns him,
A familiar longing
Soaks her
Just a tint
Of charming olive skin
Showing at his
Almost delicate wrist
Contrasting with his
Fearsome expression
Severe cheeks
Steel-glare eyes
Surveying this
Intended conquest
As if she were just land
To map, divide, cultivate
Balancing at the edge of the
Raised bed
She is looking down, down, down
And imagines she sees Hell
Twisting in the patterns
Of that cold, cold marble
And she tastes blood
Where she clenched her teeth
to her tender lips
(Oh, that he will certainly savor)
Oh. Yes.
She can see looks every bit as inviting as chocolate
To his beautifully cruel eyes
He will melt her, rearrange her
So she no longer can wear
Dresses
Never cover her buxom chest
Never think of her other lovers
Without humiliating herself
So winningly before him
With little preamble
He peels back her wrappings
Loving her fear and trembling..
And the faithless smell
Of her austere royal skin
And as he mars anew
The grace of that
Quick-healing flesh
He growls the elegant
Three syllables of her name
Ragged against her little ear.
Ah, but...
Where can she escape it?
And how?
Oh, but she needs her sleep now!
She tells herself calmly
Dulled by the force of her climax
That she'll find the answer tomorrow.
And it never comes.
Not ever.
You paint an excellent portrait of what I believe is a dom/sub relationship. Your diction is excellent throughout and your visuals and metaphors are fresh and sharp. This was a superior write and a pleasure to read such fine work!
The poem is enticing with the dramatic narrative and emotions ( I wish some 'regular stories' were as good as this one...).I assume that there is a painting(s) which inpire(s) this poem...if I am not wrong with my assumption then almost as in the case of illustrated poetry, it might have helped if a specific reference came with the poem. I tried but failed to find a painting which could fit the description in the poem. The poem stand on its own, but if it is having a dialogue with a particular painting - a quick reference might have helped.
