*this is a repost.




somehow i found myself
consorting with a
curled medusa

found myself
lying in bed
with no morals
or pride

or strength


just a lonely mermaid
sunbathing on two
pale kneecaps,
as something finds
it's way into
my mouth-


(and it's almost as though
i am giving head
to a disiple of christ
or maybe a gladiator
without a golden shield.)



loneliness is supposed
to fade.
emptiness is supposed
to be replaced.


instead,

his dick is covered
in my spit

and my hair is
sweeping his legs
like a drowned ship
but my mouth has
ceased to feel anything

i've never felt more
dirty than i do now,


but the reciever of
this "pleasure"
cannot know this.


his body bobs up
and down,
like a struggling stone
dancing to a
nonexistent beat


and i'm trying to
pretend that i

enjoy this feeling
that there's no
place i'd rather be
than on top of him,


feeling his hardness
against my lips
like a warm pipe

while my hand is

wrapped around his
cock, a thick cigarette.



i hate this taste
yet they tell me
i am supposed to love it.
i feel cheap yet
i am supposed to
feel fulfilled.




he doesn't love me


and he will never
love me

but at this moment,
his love is washing
into my mouth,
a sticky river of iron


and i choke it out
like a purging girl
rejecting food

(my body refuses
to digest this sickening
taste,


this miserably odor,
this symbol of empty doors
and cold oceans).


he looks cheerful now
but i feel so used
as i notice how
he kisses everywhere


except my lips

and he tells me
that i have done

a good job.
i'd exchange that
souless praise
just to get my dignity back



but it's lost down the
cracks of his wooden
bedroom floor,
the semen and saliva
and beauty.



i am jezebel
i am eve
i am everyone
but myself



and i'll never get
those 25 minutes back

sadly enough, an all too familiar feeling in this for me, the act its self I live for, lol.. but when its with someone that shows you mean nothing more to him than THAT moment, ..empty and used and hating yourself for giving yet another pieace of yourself away to someone who will never even care.... I understood every line...well done

I have to admit, this was incredibly hard to read with the tears that were welling up in my eyes as I went along. This was simply amazing and so true.

Actually, now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure I read this before. I don't think I understood it as well then, but I sure do now. I still think it's a wonderful write, either way.

"loneliness is supposed to fade. emptiness is supposed to be replaced." this gets right to the heart of it.

Thank you for reposting this one darlin, I love the imagery and feeling this poem projects. Love ya doll!

I read this as I prostrate myself before an insatiable Magdalen... sacrificing my strength to afford her desire, burying my ears even as I long to hear her siren's moan... suffocating myself painstakingly, as if I were caught in a widow makers' web, wings falling away, crouched in a damp corner pulling out my tongue in hopes of finding favor, finding fulfillment in her eyes. I struggle to breathe and legs envelope the last vestiges of my lungs... another hour cut in twain... lost in the folds of another vain cunnilinctus :) Love ya Doll... just bein' a pain in the ass, sorry ♥

...I know how this feels..the emptiness of the act... the feeling of disgrace. Anyway this was written quite beautifully; I loved your metaphors.

I agree with Zen, the not kissing the lips really brings the poem and your point home... great write. thanks.

Well...Jesus.

the last part about not kissing on the lips. hits hard, really hard. i just kind of... don't know what to say. amazing, honest, insightful, and the imagery makes it all more meaningful, more real some how.

i remember this one. ...i think MOST men [not ALL, so no offense] just dont get sometimes the intimacy of certain acts, the way some things jsut inherently make us FEEL [the eve, jezebel stanza sums it up]. .. maybe we just have more issues? lol. .. i still find this a fascinating write; so perilously performed and scrutinized beyond imagination. .. every nuance present and. .. i think if we could detach from the emotional during the act, buts its so hard.

maybe not, but those were the best damn 25 minutes of my life! :P Okay, seriously... if it only took 25 minutes, then maybe you should have a heart-to-heart with my woman. Well, maybe a more serious question, do you think a bj is more degrading for a woman than a yodel in the valley is for a guy... ceteris paribus? Or is oral just unbecoming...? I think my comment was more sincere and sympathetic the first time around, but I can't recall.


On Friday January 11th, 2008, saintedmad (995) writes:
....neither is degrading if the emotional attachment is there, but sometimes, we forget that...or we lose it; so much to be felt, beyond the skinsenses, ugh, dont get me started. .. i personally think its more intimate and much more personal than sex. and.. .. better to give than to receive. SRY to anna for using this as discussion....


On Saturday January 12th, 2008, Ainsof (1729) writes:
Is there any better foreplay... and as far as being afraid to kiss; well, I wouldn't think everyone would be that selfish. I agree, shweets, if the giving is true and deep, and the sharing is genuine and felt as such... then all inhibitions may be lost, and what in another context may be degrading becomes ecstatic... but then, isn't that true of all sexual touching period? What is ecstasy if not a transmigration of the soul/mind/heart/self ___ ... ?

just to point out to everyone, this piece is NOT about me being against blowjobs. not at all. i was just conveying how i felt, and how some women sometimes feel after performing these acts..i am not placing the blame on anyone. just to clarify :) thank you for the comments, darrin. *hugs*
