Her

Sometimes...

The dark dance calls softly,
like Night Shade or Oleander.
Just a little taste...
Just one more slow waltz...
I can smell her
wet orchid while I sleep.
She moves languidly through
my dreams possess me at dawn
with lambent steps.
The love is violent, like a bullfight.
It's sweet and treacherous, ferocious.
Fatal for one of us.
And she's been gored.

This one flows all the way through to the brutal end. Vivid and strong in its power. An explosion of rawness.

[Thomas W Case]

Thank you. So very kind.

Such raw and honest words, Thomas. Psyche and physicality working in harmony start to finish, sir!

'She moves languidly through
my dreams possess me at dawn
with lambent steps.'

Will find some of your spoken words at the weekend, when I can focus.

So this to speaks of having dreams of addiction. I have heard many people talk about “dope dreams” after they become sober and clean.
