early mornings
before the sun rises
she burrows beneath
the covers
to wake him
taking him between full lips
she beckons him
awake and so hard
within
*This is for National Poetry Month, where I’m writing on a theme. Inspired by Álvaro de la Herrán‘s video for GQ Spain called Mine
You handle sensuality with great mental imagery and very few words. For my own tastes, I prefer that over rolling paragraphs of hyperbole and expletives.
Thanks! I guess that’s why I stick to poetry – without the expletives though sometimes nothing fits in there better but the good use of one 🙂
Yes! properly applied, expletives are better than coffee for opening the eyes. 🙂
