MAHOGANY CIRCUS POETRY:SELECTION-CROSS MY HEART (ENTRY FROM MY UPCOMING BOOK, MAHOGANY CIRCUS)

Artistic, goddess like pose renders joy to my senses
The depth of your beauty corrals my thoughts, and entrenches
Deep inside of my mind it spirals out of control
Running a covert cue on my heart, capturing my soul

I lay helpless, looking up to the wondrous sight of you
Instinctually reaching for my sword, confusingly, knowing not what to do
I concede my life and offer my services for all of eternity
A simple gesture made in honor of your estheticism, earnestly

My intentions drip from my brow like perspiration
Soiling reality with my views of you, in adoration
Take me into your arms, my sweet, do with me, what you will
Love me as you wish, until your heart is surely fulfilled

Stand in my presence as the ruler of my total existence
Until your cup runs over into the shadow of love's persistence
Carry me to ecstasy in the bosom of your fragrance
For I have exited all of reality, and am now a vagrant

I now only exist in the pleasure of loving you
That sensuous feeling you get when your heart is pleased and true
Yes. I am that, that is all that I am, and always will be
Love me tender in my extraction, as you seek set me free

Your softness exudes pleasure like a wheel of fortune
To be without your treasure would condemn me to a life of torture
So my dear you see, I choose you, not out of frivolity, but in necessity
Your warmth wraps me like the finest clothes, drenching me in sensuality

The finest velvets silks, satins, skins, and furs
Crowns sashes, gowns, rings of honor, matching his and hers
I except my thrown as your king as I dawn this crown, and bow to your sword
A good and faithful undying servant, until my very lasts breath of words

Your king standing erect, upright, and righteous, knowing his part
Beside a queen, equally yoked and worthy. Cross my heart
