romance
“Come Home” by Slings&Arrows
Come home to me my love
stop this storm I’m sailing
let me gently dab the wounds
you’re wearing
and offer you sips of caring
for the secrets you are bearing
keep our love safe
for future wearing

my vision is blurred
can’t see the forest thru trees
splendour in the grass

“Barbed Wire Romance” by L. K. Thayer
barbed wire romance
sucked into chance
and all that is written on walls
as graffiti is sprayed
and the apple is bitten
let our love not fade
with the ashes
of burning Cinderellas
and lost slippers
sipping from big dippers
on the milky way
of what’s mine is yours
and the galaxy of
meteors and space between
our sentences, let
our pregnant pauses
birth new beginnings
from lust to trust
grounded into
submission
giving each other permission
to become
who we are

“Roll Play” by L. K. Thayer
a game of chance
this romance
this cup of tea
I am your cheap date
your checkmate
your wench
the one you bench press
at half past three
always thirsting
for a cup of me

“Sundae” by L. K. Thayer
gasping, hot humid air
mind over matter heaves
when will the knock at the door
take my breath away?
I peek through the shutters
uttering a sigh of madness
holding onto my silk cocoon
fluttering hearts and palpitating
eyelashes
dance the tango
of twisted canals in hotel lobbies
and cat’s pajamas
the thunder in my thighs readies
for it’s occupant, turning the bed sheets
down a notch
my jeans slide off my hips in a tangled bunch
waiting for my alter ego
my bedroom street smarts kick in
with baited libido
I uncork my inner monologue and hallelujah chorus
waiting for the dark horse
my stud, my mount, to come hither
Frankincense & Myrrh billow in the shabby room
scaring up romance
and cutting strings attached
no mercy for the wicked wench
who wets her appetite for Crème Brulee
whip cream
and a cherry
on top
