she never needs me yet she knows i'm there for her for someday she might ----- out of her armor self-sufficient warrior loves like a woman ------ do you sometimes smile put aside your tortured thoughts knowing that i care ----- reasons to hate me i'm one of the oppressors she knows me better

when desires burn her she edges near to their fires withdraws then returns ----- no reservations performs freely acts of love from her own desires ----- hands tied behind you kneeling naked eyes covered ready for my use ----- beautiful colors amber ebony pearl and sard each a hue to love ----

she lives for pleasure teaching strangers of love wherever she is ----- waiting poet longs her pitcher tilts but pours not thirst remains unquenched ----- bosom pierced by need she bled deeply impaled by poetry's pleasures ----- eager sacrifice on desire's fiery altar praying for release -----

i still watch for you wondering if you still read poems i want you to ----- knowing your secrets oh how similar we are in more ways than one ----- bonds of poetry binding her much more tightly than any constraint ----- do my words stir you as i always hope they will i wish i could know ---

when you wail with pain old evils come to haunt you know i hear your cries ----- we both have old sins that's how we became ourselves that's who we love now ----- vanilla chocolate strawberry and butterscotch how sweet love can be ----- talking to myself poems are written echoes of my own desi

passionately forged pure and impure works of art mutual displays ----- her petals create origami rose to hold desire's libation ----- first a tempting taste but as her passion rises a delicious flood • Donovan Baldwin
