special words for you
poet hopes to bring a smile
kiss away a tear
-----
cannot help but touch you
shower you with artless kisses
inflamed by my desires
-----
pagan ritual
two otherworldly poets
blending inner fires
-----
surrenders control
so safe within his embrace
lost in her desires
-----
seeks her oasis
in his desert of desires
where love's a mirage
-----
past mistakes and sins
got us to where we can love
with true certainty
-----
i'm not right i'm me
and you should remain yourself
real people in love
-----
i'll never be me
that is unacceptable
in your society
-----
your appearance means
i've not written words in vain
because you read them
-----
she dances to winds
pan's music only she can hear
pagan seduction
-----
let's speak of desires
why do you fear to say things
i already know
-----
i'm dark and brooding
only offer poetry
lost soul wandering
-----
when i die i'll go
nothing will be left behind
but ashes and words
-----
tearing down walls
explore depths of poetry
revealing secrets
-----
how she makes me burn
despite her coolness like water
my soul boils for her
-----
wave caresses shore
stroking again and again
endless lovemaking
-----
i have loved your words
treasuring your sighs and tears
silent in support
-----
love never mentioned
yet we feel it between us
as we weave our words
-----
sitting at the bar
drinking in old memories
feeling young once more
-----
love's not always sex
nor is sex always for love
yet love and sex rock
-----
watched for you today
but you never appeared
not your fault
-----
never say enough
you must be yourself no more
loved the way you are
-----
you are not what they think you are
you are so much more than that
i seek all of you
----
Just because I'm old...
In 1967 I walked the wharf
In Monterey, California,
I watched hippies and
Topless dancers in
San Francisco.
I climbed the cliffs
Along highway 101
Above the Pacific waves,
Made love to strangers,
And went on to Germany,
Where I lived with and loved
A member of the Polish underground.
Old? Yes, but oh, the memories,
The experiences.
-----
she wanted gentle
then excitement aroused her
and she asked for rough
-----
first she said gentle
but as she became aroused
she asked me for rough
