A few weeks ago I was walking early in the morning and noticed pages from a book scattered all over the side walk. I happened to look down and see a couple of lines that caught my eye. I picked it up and put it in my purse. A few days later I took the pages out and read them….this is what I found:
I SWOON
I yearn to fuck.
To feel my body incandescent
glowing like a Xmastree
‘neath yours. You turn
me on… I SWOON.
At the thought of your stiff poker
tempered by the fires of love, I SWOON.
At sight of of its bright garnet knob, ah!
O why? I wish to be so wholly conscious,
yet…I SWOON
Deliver me beloved from
this soft sweet faint. Electrify
my body even as the ramrod of your manhood
pierces me, so that I may cry to you
…”I SWOON!”
Homage
These things I offer to the great God Eros:
-My wet and greeny gash and its attendant furze…
-My pruny anus, hidden, yet all unashamed…
-My ears that long to hear Him whisper, “Hump me!”…
-My nose that I may sniff His rutty flesh…
-My eyes that He may spew His seed on them…
-My mouth that aches to gorge upon His prong…
-All, ALL my apertures are His…
The Slippery Flesh
How slick and juicy is your body, dearest,
When all covered with your juices male;
When I inhale the sweat from off your torso
My lips do shake and all my face grows pale.
My frail hand then does slip upon your shoulder,
It slides so gaily from your chest to belly;
Oh! Did you but know that at that moment
My heart is thumping, and my knees are jelly.
And when that same small hand does reach your groin
It occupies itself to make me whole;
I pinch and prod and shake and agitate
Your monumental, proud and greased pole!
Envoi
Oh! Let your sex stand tall like gallant sail!
I’ll act as if I’m a deli!
To feast upon your hot pastrami is my goal!
Adorable Legs
When I observe your adorable legs, hard-muscled, straight,
And thick-entwined with manly hair, I weep
That I am not your feet.
When I envision those puissant limbs athrashing
Through the quiet glade or pistoning the pavements, then
I long to be your socks.
When in between my own two trembling nether limbs
Your masculine ones do haul your eager frame, why then
Can’t I be your knees?
But it is when my eager orbs do spy upon you
Sleeping, and travel from your toes up to your groin
That I wish that I might be – your cock!

What a fucking fun show. I was so happy that The Michael Monroe Band was the first show I saw at the legendary Whisky A Go Go. I would definitely say it lived up to my expectations!! Not to mention my delight when Duff Mckagan surprised the audience for the encore, playing bass while Sami Yaffa switched to guitar. Whoever thinks old rock stars don’t know how to put a good show is full of shit. This band plays so hard and has far more energy than any “young” band I have ever seen. At one point Micheal Monroe scaled the walls walking around the out side of the balcony holding on to the railing with one hand while singing into his mike with the other. This all seems so dreamy but I’m pretty fucking sure I remember him sliding down the banister while playing the saxophone too. Magical!!!

Orange peels curling into spirals pulled by her teeth…her lips following after chasing the sweet juices of the world.
I awake to her kissing my tears licking them drop by drop, it seems she likes my sorrow more than my soul.
She tells me secrets she has written on the side-walk for the passer-bys.
I wonder whether she finds anything sacred.
She burns me with her matches and I lay there with out protesting.
My body is sticky with sugar from the night before.
Champagne and dew lost moments stolen by you.

This spider web is sticky with lust, catching its prey and wrapping them up tight, another morsel for the night.
I find my self caught and relaxed in the pleasure of captivity.
This penniless luxury is all to addictive.
A life lived like a modern libertine, I find my morals running thin… when debauchery is so strong with in.
Vitality pulses in every pore across my flesh and I have never felt so close to death.
Silver explosions in the blackness night, a call to lovers light.
Our bodies seem to be molded to one another, a strange familiarity an echo of what could be.
Passion, bliss and loss of innocence.
The world is folding in…. a crumbling of sin.

When did we began to crumble?
Or did we flak?
You flaked, I crumbled.
I crumbled from your flakes…they were to heavy on my heart.
I disintegrated back into myself.
Back into my world, my home….alone.

Remember death when you look at me.
Remember death and you will see he is closer to you then me.
What has become of life when all I see is dark shadows of eternity?
There’s a soft tenderness in death’s foreverness.
Death is the only suitor who follows through making all his promises come true.
He seems a handsome man, a king of a strange enchanted land.
Are all the ghosts his brides?
Wearing white, queens ruling by his side…
I see death in every handsome man I see,
Am I merely pretending to be Persephone?

At midnight, in the month of June,
I stand beneath the mystic moon.
An opiate vapour, dewy, dim,
Exhales from out her golden rim,
And, softly dripping, drop by drop,
Upon the quiet mountain top,
Steal drowsily and musically
Into the universal valley.
The rosemary nods upon the grave;
The lily lolls upon the wave;
Wrapping the fog about its breast,
The ruin moulders into rest;
Looking like Lethe, see! the lake
A conscious slumber seems to take,
And would not, for the world, awake.
All beauty sleeps! – and lo! where lies
Irene, with her Destinies!
Oh, lady bright! can it be right-
The window open to the night?
The wanton airs, from the tree-top,
Laughingly through the lattice drop -
The bodiless airs, a wizard rout,
Flit through thy chamber in and out,
And wave the curtain canopy
So fitfully – so fearfully -
Above the closed and fringéd lid
‘Neath which thy slumb’ring soul lies hid,
That, o’er the floor and down the wall,
Like ghosts the shadows rise and fall!
Oh, lady dear, hast thou no fear?
Why and what art thou dreaming here?
Sure thou art come o’er far-off seas
A wonder to these garden trees!
Strange is thy pallor! strange thy dress!
Strange, above all, thy length of tress,
And this all solemn silentness!
The lady sleeps! Oh, may her sleep,
Which is enduring, so be deep!
Heaven have her in its sacred keep!
This chamber changed for one more holy,
This bed for one more melancholy,
I pray to God that she may lie
Forever with unopened eye,
While the pale sheeted ghosts go by!
My love, she sleeps! Oh, may her sleep,
As it is lasting, so be deep!
Soft may the worms about her creep!
Far in the forest, dim and old,
For her may some tall vault unfold -
Some vault that oft hath flung its black
And wingéd panels fluttering back,
Triumphant, o’er the crested palls,
Of her grand family funerals -
Some sepulchre, remote, alone,
Against whose portal she hath thrown,
In childhood, many an idle stone -
Some tomb from out whose sounding door
She ne’er shall force an echo more,
Thrilling to think, poor child of sin!
It was the dead who groaned within.

Confusing you with my
false emotions
pretense of power,
shakes, wake up—wake up,
I promise I’m lying but
right now, it’s the truth
I will not regret
consequence forgotten,
sensitive beings,
wooing the will,
you break
and I let you down.
I never meant to.
Secret societies
friends and lovers
concealing the consequences
forgotten mistakes
wondering—will you fall for it?
My game, is not a game.

“The young madcap suddenly proposed that the girls should dance a hornpipe in the costume of Mother Eve, and they consented on the condition that we would adopt the dress of Father Adam, and that blind musicians were summoned. I told them that I would take off my clothes to oblige them, but that I had no hopes of being able to imitate the seductive serpent. I was allowed to retain my dress, on the condition that if I felt the prick of the flesh I should immediately undress. I agreed to do so, and the blind musicians were sent for, and while they tuned their instruments toilettes were made, and the orgy began”

When I went to the goodwill bins today I was in no way expecting a history lesson but thanks to the vintage wall hanging that I found I now know all about Welsh Love Spoons! I thought I may as well share my new-found knowledge with you all. Enjoy!

“Wales is a land steeped in history, old legends, folklore and interesting customs. A romantic and ancient custom was the making and giving of love spoons. Love spoons were associated with courtship when it was traditional for young lovers to fashion intricately carved wooden spoons and present them to their sweethearts. It was important for each maker to identify himself with his spoon by using symbols relating to his own personal interests or way of life.
Some of the symbols used where :~ A HORSE for the horse fancier. A HEART for love. A HORSESHOE for luck. A SHIP for a sailor. A WHEEL for the traveller. A SUN for life. A CHAIN for permanent linking. A KEYHOLE for the door of the heart or house. A TRAPPED BALL is the makers heart in a cage of love. A STAR for the twinkling lady in the carvers life!
Some of the woods used in this craft where :~ Pine, Oak, Ash, Yew, Elm, Sycamore and Beech.”
