a midnight wonder

a slick date

a shy pussycat

a feather

an ice cube

 

a shower above

a cold touch

cozy socks

and flannel pj’s

 

back rubs

family and friends

your place or mine

today or tomorrow

 

sunsets and sunrises

the bay shore and the gulf of

cruises without bruises

no fighting or war

troubles gone with sorrow

 

news of good; not evil

clouds that bring sunshine

memories, in the memory box

communication

partners whom speak

 

beating down; that sunshine

doves, blue birds, and penguins too

arches, golden, an inspiration

sex over there, sex over here

 

seas, oceans, and a bed of roses

petals, fields, fluffy puffy stuff

backyard swing sets

barbecue spice

holiday time

seasons in the air

fresh baked

no mother is fake

 

your grandmother’s stories

sister’s too

your friend’s best cherished orb

and your last year’s card

 

 

Erotic is...

 

a fireplace

a hearth felt warm

cotton, earth tones, valleys too

boundaries and contributions

covered by law, conquered by bridges

babies, a kitten’s first light, a kangaroo’s hop

 

a skip skip, skip to my loo

a mountain top,

a scotch

and a cover band

 

the jetsons, play-doh, and scooby-doo

Mr magoo, where are you?

an island with gilligan,

and a Family in the All

Whose line?

i’m not sure,

ask benny or monty,

they are erotic too

 

a wim wenders film

a crashing car?

latex, lace, and leather too

handcuffs, silver, a beggar’s change

a tribal beat

a fresh piece of meat

 

a heavenly god

mary’s st jude

lucifer’s actions

and god on his knees

 

art

poetry

your music inside your head;

let’s get wed.

 

 

numbers and letters

jumble too

jingle all along the way

and then one day -

 

E R O T I C A ! !

 

 

E R O T I C A ! !

 

 

a fourth floor song

a street on 42nd

come, cum to the place

a grand ‘ole time

25 cents a 125 channels

 

 

Erotic is....

 

a Miami girl

a Sarajevo accents

a womyn on a television

the weather person’s prediction

a heroin’s addiction

a guy named nixon

i think a cat will need a fixin’

 

Erotic is....

 

strawberries, whipped creme, bananas too

strap-ons, if you can’t handle it - -

you shouldn’t be here

or in there

or able to

 

read, right of the nation

political nation

songs about peace

agony on the streets

 

Please, a Warhol cover

a tune to make a lover

Please, a Warhol show

they won’t ever,

ever,

be this low

 

 

Erotic is....

 

that first kiss,

a bear hug

when that train pulls up...

out pops your lover

your lover

 

a gaze into an eye

amber or gold

blue or oceana

green or pigment

 

a raised eyebrow

or nothing more

pollution making beauty

a stunned white nudity

 

 

Erotic is....

 

at that moment,

...

that one moment in time...

when you realize...

he is for you...

she is for you...

together, a moment,

shared but understood...

loved.

the feeling...

nothing can explain it...

 

Its Erotic.
