PLAYFUL EAGER FINGERS (AN EROTIC POEM)
His fingers eagerly playful,
Willing in their travels
Yet, lost along their way
Through her forbidden lands,
She takes them in hers,
Willingly guides them,
Shows them the way into
Her most pleasurable places,
Pointing out with pressure,
Whispered directions
And gasps of pleasure
At their grasp of her desires,
Until she sings out with gladness,
Her fingers wrapped with theirs
Having reached together
That most beautiful of moments,
That, while wonderful in itself,
Has extra meaning when
She arrives to the applause
Of his playful eager fingers.

POEM: WRITE TO ME OF LOVE
Write to me of love
Both sacred and profane.
Draw for me secrets
Within your pounding heart.
Song of the ends of
Exhilaration and ecstasy
Of your mind and body.
Step boldly, shyly forward
Eternally exposed by
Trailing transparent words.
How to describe you
Two simple words say so much...
Passionate woman
Write me honest words
Toss veils and cloaks far aside...
Show me who you are
Exposing at last
Your naked soul
Spilling out her words
Poetry in blood red ink...
Ichor of my muse

POEM: PROUD ACHILLES
Proud Achilles
By: Donovan Baldwin
Hector's gone. He's gone to die.
He's gone from Troy. He's gone to try...
Try to best the proud Achilles.
Hector's wife upon the wall,
Who gazes down and watches all
Sees the wrath of proud Achilles.
Trojans in, and Greeks without
Watch Hector's final, fatal bout
With Thetis' son, the proud Achilles.
Pray for Hector who died bravely
As Greeks and Trojans watched so gravely
But, also pray for proud Achilles.
Who, for his dead friend, Patroclus,
Dragged Hector's body through the dust
Such was the rage of proud Achilles.
For this the gods sat in debate
And wove the web which trapped his fate,
The looming death of proud Achilles.
Neither sword, nor spear, but arrow
Little more than swooping sparrow,
Dimmed the eyes of proud Achilles.
