    Rough, Raw, Righteous

    Rough, Raw, Righteous Tongue presses deep—not a kiss, but conquest,a moan muffled in the mouth,a gasp stolen before it can rise. Fingers probe my moistness—not gentle, but knowing,with relentless intent,mapping every slick secret. My wrists pinned overhead—you are gravity,I am undone.Each breath...

    • Beautifully written achingly sad.

      Good work Elke

    • WOW! This is one heavy piece. Sad, heartbreaking & tragic. The mind is a terrible thing to lose. Great piece Sappho.

      • Yeah, losing one’s mind must be horrible! The number of people suffering from dementia is increasing, and I think the reason is not only the higher life expectancy nowadays but also depleted soils and incorrect nutrition.
        As always, thanks a lot for your feedback dear Keith!

    • Deep dive with a hit. Powerful. 🌼

    • The world must seem a terrifying & surreal place when the mind drifts in & out of presence. This one aches

      • Yes, Willow, this is certainly terrifying. And there are different clinical pictures of dementia. I think the worst is the one you consciously know that you are suffering from dementia but there is nothing you can do against it…
        Thank you very much for your meaningful comment!

    • Beautifully aching. The suffering of the mind, suicide as a means of escape from that sorrow, and the ending was a good punch to the reader!

      • Life itself often tells the most tragic stories. I simply had to write a poem on this heartbreaking case.
        Lots of thanks for your kind comment, Daniel!
        Great to meet you here again!

    • Yes, the topic is indeed disturbing but nevertheless it is important. More and more people have to or will have to deal with dementia.
      Thanks a lot for reading and commenting, Seacat!

    • Thank you so much for sharing your personal experiences and for writing your kind comment, Adira!
