She Made Love To Me

CATEGORY

life

she made love to me...

I couldn't help myself...

my will was weak
my spirit
vulnerable to impending moments of passion

let me tell you all about it...

she wanted to make love to me 
but didn't know how
and after the evening meal was consumed
we sat in the living room together
looking at each other
circling
like two restless panthers in a circus cage
feeling each other out 
looking for the perfect opportunity to gain an advantage
to pounce

the Smokey Robinson CD never fails
but it did tonight

the incense and candles would always have us on the floor
knocking over chairs
lamps
anything that wasn't nailed down
prompting knocks on the door
or the floor
from angry neighbors downstairs

but tonight
she wanted to make love to me...

so we sat there
and it began to happen...

a conversation began about something she saw in the news
I had seen it too
and we discussed its implications on our lives
our society
our people...

I began to loosen my collar...

we agreed on some points
disagreeing on others
but we continued to conversate on other topics
history
good books
good movies
people
places
thangs

I began to get the feelin'...

we spent the night like lawyers in a courtroom
litigating our individual cases
and when the morning came
I lay prostrate on the couch
exhausted
satisfied
gratified

she wanted to make love to me...

she made love to me...

all night long...

my mind 
climaxing
exploding into the atmosphere...

I couldn't help myself...

she made love to my mind
all night long

brutal
violent
unprotected love...

tonight

we can do the Smokey Robinson
and worry about the neighbors

tomorrow
