"Respite"

Entry into the "Dancing with Distraction" acrostic prompt challenge

By L.M.K.Published 3 years ago • Updated 3 years ago • 1 min read

Driving the dance floor she flooded

In

Strapped to the bedposts she danced

Trailing spit across my lips, hands

Reacting to hits with pleasure

Accentuating her slender twists and

Curling up into me when spent, delicate

Tumultuous mind at rest - respite from the real

In

Our little distraction

No man can quite comprehend

- - -

*Nights come alive with full bloom in your hands she says reaching the zenith in colors as sharp as ice and plateau warm as childhood memory she says

- - -

*Like strangers we dance again night and night a Saraband build till our timely rendezvous

About the Creator

L.M.K.

Like to write - more so like finishing a thought, sculpting it takes effort and can't without - so only when I have time. Otherwise live all over the map, both literally and figuratively.
