Roleplay
In the post afternoon
Twilight I saw her
Just as night dropped
Upon the atmosphere
Like the wings of the
Universe folding in on itself
Cloaking the empty streets
In tempered darkness
Empty but for she
Filling in all my blanks
Angel of night dark seraph
Street lights framing her
With a pale yellow halo
Assuredly a divine nimbus
We both inhaled
She/The thick Newport smoke
And I/Her
Slowly it unfolded
This opera complete
With music playing
Jazz like in my head
Her motion like snake
Her stride like a wave
Crashing upon the
Beach of my subconscious
Sweet like memory
When love is the treat
Shared between sheets of lust
Tigress watching from
Depths of cement jungle
Scaled eyes slowly weighing
What she found wanting
I could not say
Trapped by her stare
Thinking me prey
But I am the lion
That strikes with
Smooth words to match
Her smooth skin
To compliment
Smooth movements
That can only lead
To rough thoughts
The key was the words
The treasure unlocked
Is our freedom to explore
Without tangible reason
She lightly brushes
My lips with hers
Too many oft said phrases
Cannot describe
Then she turns her back to me
And slowly slowly slowly
She disrobes the night
I see the sun
We touch flesh to flesh
I/Sand paper
She/Glass
Broken bottle goddess
Cutting into my being
Was it a dream
Or was it you
Under those naked street lights
