"Inside of each moment"

By

Poet

Tip toeing on held breaths with

Outstretched fingertips

I long for your touch.

My desire to hold you

To love you;

But…

not the way these

Boilerplate musicians perpetrate emotions these days,

The way they erode passion into

Grinding on sheets to strained falsettos;

With overpowering beats and hooks

That neither stand out

Or stand on their own…

No!

I'm not feeling that,

Baby, I desire you in a

OJay's,

Commodores,

Con Funk Shun

Teddy P,

Jeffrey Osborne,

back-in-the-day Luther

Type of way…

A melodic serenade

a sexy electric parlay

A hot current

Which resuscitates my soul;

Flows sporadically

Thru my every extremity,

Rinsing away my sensibilities…

For these moments with you

I'd adjust my timetables,

Without a second thought

I'd leave 5 business colleagues

In pinstripe suits

waiting to discuss possible expansions

international investors

financial endeavors,

wagers and mergers

They'd be sitting in that booth

sipping warm whiskey sours

With warm drinks and cold food

As I sponge bathe your for hours

In a candlelit shower

As our love devours the night

Kidnaps the twilight

and stalks midnight

In my heart I hold you

To know you to love you

Forever I adore you

I never knew the content

1 man, 1 woman invent

Inside of each moment
