her feathered fingers
ground him
her earth breath lingers
lifts him to heaven

under table cloth
he slipped
gold and turquoise ring
on my small finger

what’s the hottest thing ?
tongue – belly – heart – volcanic
thought….. surely not, feet?!

timing sex off beat
hormones turn up heat slick skinned
to sheets to this breath

skin twitters scribbles
none sense in ebbs across tides
your tongue messages

belly warmed by broth
of a kiss running wild fire
rolling sweet to thighs

NaPoWriMo day 3

gimme gimme gist
of flitter-fly-by thirst
tacky-tracked along
a wrist ~ what’s the worst
delishous twist what tastes
of burnt stealth beneath
a waist ~ ( titter twitter )
.
gimme gimme midnight stake
bubble double take ~ wait!
anticipation’s perfect gurgle’s
urgent song ~ clickerty-clacks along
a back ~ frissons released once
upon a twice a teasel
:
a breeze blocked
oh gods!
up and downs and up to no goods
my bads!
my best belovèd’s
blooded boned & skinned
pulsed licked & cracked
lipperty-smacked
.
gimme gimme fumes plumes
faster grimaces gasped
whacks of magicks regurgitated mismanaged
damaged criminal crimsons
tortured turquoise spinning
upwards cussed to guttural hungers
.
how to linger thus
tipped over fingered just
shimme shimme ~ got!
polka-dotted
chimney-potted ~ pop!
best besotted~ stop!
stop.

And now for our prompt. This one is a bit involved, which is why I’m giving it to you on a Saturday. Today, I’d like to challenge you to make a “Personal Universal Deck,” and then to write a poem using it. The idea of the “Personal Universal Deck” originated with the poet and playwright Michael McClure, who gave the project of creating such decks to his students in a 1976 lecture at Naropa University. Basically, you will need 50 index cards or small pieces of paper, and on them, you will write 100 words (one on the front and one on the back of each card/paper) using the rules found here.
Don’t agonize over your word choices. Making the deck should be fun and revealing, as you generate words that sound “good” to you. The fact that the words are mainly divided among the five senses should be helpful in selecting words that you like the sound of, and that have some meaning personal to you. For example, my deck contains “harbor,” “wool,” “murmur,” “obsidian,” and “needle.”
Once you have your deck put together, shuffle it a few times. Now select a card or two, and use them as the basis for a new poem.
just give me one shot
right between the eyes lips thighs
of love, til parting
