Conjuror

You lay in each and every sigh from my lips
I am reduced me to an all consuming ache
I am slayed
On your knees looking straight into my eyes
Gently I shall take you
Only to be covered in you
My lips are anticipating yours
You keep me well
You are Babylon
Sweetest pain
I smile when the ache comes, but it hurts nonetheless
I just sit here and play my bouzouki and watch you eat your olives and tomatoes
Written in pain
Written in awe
Telltale echoes
Long-legged strut
Stabbing spikes
Spark inferno's rage
For warm honey walking
Half step staccato
In a mid-stride drag
Adds due emphasis
Like a magnet to steel
And no less powerful
Than warm honey-scent
Pouting little strumpet
With crossed arms flair
Meant to punctuate
A wordless look
That flaunts a promise
Of sweet honey sweet
You have captivated me
Let me stand trembling before you
My precious caress is more savory than honey
I see you see me
Reclined on the sofa
Half clothed
Eyes half mast
Tousled raven tresses
Caressing your shoulders
Peacefully like sea serpents
And you know you're not alone
The door that just flew open
Blew the papers off the table
The feral dog baying in the distance
The mist lingering like a recent dream
The brass lamp flickering possessed
You see you just felt your legs go weak when you tried to stand
Didn't you
Had to lie back down
You see it's me
So let me rest your head back on the pillow
And let me whisper to you tales of decadence
Show you galaxies not yet imagined
Let me gently bring your eyes to a close
As you drift off and take my hand
As we breath rarefied air
And hear the pipes of Pan approaching
Feel the drums getting louder
Dervishes
Spinning faster
Around the fire
Crescendo building
Virgins ululating
Universes contracting and expanding in perfect time
With this orchestra of flesh
A subatomic cataclysm
Flashes of reds
Yellows
Oranges
Golds
Then
White light
Infinite silence
Bliss
And you awaken
My skin is sticky with salty sweat
The feeling of accomplishment sit on my skin
Thrill with lissome lust of the light
Come careering out of the night
