Moonlight

Let me love you in the moonlight
cool light shading
silvered breasts.
Shadows cupping aureoles
inviting golden kisses.
Teasing lips pouting
as eyelashes,
butterflies of teasing,
flicker passion brushing
hips and moonlit
shadows tempting.

Inspiration - Birthday Party

And so we sit
revisiting pasts past remembered
in agonies of childhood's fractured dreams.
Here men, sailorsuited, school capped,
with gym slipped matroned schoolgirls simpering
come looking
perhaps for memories more pleasurable
than moments of passion
unrequited in dreams of loves unlived
behind school shadowed bikesheds.

Choices

To be or not to be
might be the question.
But for me such choices never linger,
merely pass in a flicker,
glimpsed in the continuing dive-
a commitment to a plunge -
towards an inevitable end.
In these glimpses of possibility
I turn,
wait for resolution
and the decision
leading to understanding
and a leaving - triumphant from the stage.
To be forgotten as the curtain falls
and the season ends.
