Response to Dragonfly Muse Post











energy pulse – beneath goose bumps on skin

will to summon, alit, bursting forth within

total relaxation, minds eye sees seduction

presence transforming – primal reduction

mystery enigmatic – and essence floods through

memory, past, present, future sparks the milieu


overrun senses, neural networks broken

union acquired internal senses token

longing incessant, beyond comprehension

yearning acute – instinctive apprehension

coursing throughout, on tip of finger

safe coexistence yet sinister linger


phantasmagoria - tapestry display

darkness and light – disturbing to say

soaked like a reptile breathe through skin

forced down the throat, baby bird eating in

broken, alas, ripped apart by love’s hunger

soul captivated – all senses are plunder


bring glass or needle – shake out cold sweat

given dominance, but not over yet

lured, enticed, seduced undismayed

through smell, taste, touch - senses delayed

words, only words, describing sensations

muse comes, controls ultimate elations


Dragonfly's seriously awesome post inspired this -

it is a great read... Dragonfly Dreaming

Oh Larry...I have not danced like that with another poet in a long time...yearning acute, that sums it up so poignantly. I am in awe my dearest, and the words you spilled for me humble me. Thank you for the dance, I hope we do this again sometime...soon.
