in conversation with my ex

In conversation with my Ex,
we spoke of a sabbatical

that I would retreat from my nature
much as I have in the past
time and again after our divorce.

I knew he and I had lasted
sixteen years on the shear will
of my vagina knowing what it wants

so I had to clarify my hope
that my libido would be sabbatical
away from my heart, emotions

but then again, really,
I always did hope too much as well.



leaving me to lust

I have danced with the devil
in the pale moonlight
so young then,
much too young to be
impaled upon his phallic state
embraced in arms of might
bitten on bare buttock
in the cold damp night;
he left me learned, in hot wet
dreams, leaving me to lust
in need, love bursting at the seams.
