This is a rewrite of my poem “Luscious: An Ode” that I have entered into our national arts competition NIFCA – the National Independence Festival of Creative Arts. It has been entered into the Literary Arts (along with Goblet and Rain, also on this site) as well as the Performing Arts section as a spoken word piece. I have received a silver award for this poem (and bronze for both Goblet and Rain), and have also gone to the finals in the Performing Arts competition. I am yet to be told if it has medalled or not, but I am confident that I did – I enjoyed myself immensely on stage 🙂 Enjoy the rewritten Luscious!
Luscious
tempting
delicious
succulent curves
draw me in
come-hither stare
arousing fare on display
pink flesh
peeking
glistening
heady aromas awaken
addiction’s yearning
flirting
carefully approaching
forbidden corner
skirting temptation
fervent look behind
as if in shame
no matter
fight was lost
rustled paper
transaction’s over
I had her
curves caressed
naked flesh possessed
teeth nibbling
gripping
dribbling passion
teasing tongue
plunged deep within
tasting erupted juices
sauces run hot
making me holla
I took her hard
right there
didn’t care
didn’t matter
orgasmic flutter
shiver
cheapside chatter
luscious curves
satisfied hunger
for the best
bajan ham-cutter.
Passion's Pleasure

Posted by brian miller | November 8, 2011, 10:04 PMThanks Brian … unfortunately I didn’t get a performance medal, though I think that the judges misinterpreted my interpretations of some of the lines as forgetting my lines (I tried to act out a sort of being ‘overcome’ by the ‘orgasmic flutter’ by asking for a little time to compose myself) but they did not see it that way.
However, like my preamble said, I still got silver for it in the literary competition! 🙂
And thanks for the inspiring words!
