saffron

0 observations

lay with me in sheets of saffron and crimson,
silk and linen and the essence of exotic herbs
that lend to taste and scent a pleasure to repent
only after I have consumed you in metaphor.
I will lay my face to your skin and breathe in
all the attar and heat you dare to share with me.

    Explaining the Tags

    You will note, gentle reader, that all works under this blog now display "tags" to help classify and assign the works for your review and enjoyment.

    These largely fall into 4 categories:

    Year of writing, e.g. "1999"
    Book published in, e.g. "from an unexpected quarter"
    Inspiring muse, e.g. "Aubergine"
    Genre, e.g. "erotica"

    We are still in the process of cleaning up the tags, so please bear with us. Yes, some muses are classified under more than one tag, some poems appear in more than one book, or not yet in any volume, and some years are...hazy.
