Ever my fingers imagine
Your delicate lips, how they part
Liquidly, like the slow wake
Of a flatboat poled up the bayou
Nestling into a bank where snakes
Could not possibly bite. I
Could bite you there, darling.
Yes, there would I bite you.

wonderful

images. I could envision your trip on the river. The only thing that bugs me is each line beginning with caps, but hey, its a great poem, who cares about caps, right? :)

Wonderful and sensual with a real snap at the end

this feels like ee cummings meets Neruda to me. The language is so soothing to the point of being mesmerizing, which really works with that last snaky line that comes like danger out of nowhere. Delicious writing and I hope to read more of yours.

consider

ending last line as just

I see a case for Liquidly either way

Great comparison

I like the image in this poem, I've grown up by actual bayous, those cypress knees covered in lichen. Good poem. However, the word, "Liquidly" reads a little clunky to me, maybe something better than an adjective would move smooth like a snake through the waters.

Made me imagine floating with someone I wanted to be floating with. Snake and poled interesting word play.

Nicely done! Hope to read more from you. I don't why my comment's coming up as anonymous; I'm greenmountaineer.
