there is illusion said the mystics
the shackles of the carnal senses
leading to cravings and desires
the root of all suffering
reject all pleasures of the senses
become aware of their transitory nature
follow the straight and narrow path to nirvana
eat sensibly
drink reasonably
sleep for the toil of tomorrow that is the middle way
but we embraced in the smoke
rubbed in the smoke
kissed
licked
lived and laughed in the smoke
Burned ignorance in a bonfire
swiftly swirling like smoke
swaying softly beneath the moon
new rites by the rocks
drew blueprints with chalk
seduced and bewitched in the gloom
we pressed bodies and moaned
dug fingers and groaned
fell over the fire
we flew again and flocked
lost reason and thought
in holy fever we burned
entwined fingers and stroked
to reach closer and know
the taste of each other in smoke.

well this is so damn sexy.
reminds me of 17. rebellious, hungry, confident and invincible... yum.
hypnotic, like the swirls of smoke.
hi there 😌
Hello there! So glad you enjoyed it! I was really feeling the groove with that one. Sizzling :D
Honestly you're the king of sexy poetry here on the Hive.
The tension between withdrawal, detachment and actual human, lived joy is real.
Fuck and meditate. Should be a hashtag.
What a ringing endorsement, and king does have a nice ring to it! 😊
Hear, hear! The tantric mantra. ;)
Hmmm what seems to be cooking here😅. I need this poem in audio version. I love how you play with words to relay your intentions of this poem. Beautifully written! I want more poem 😩.

It is a bit steamy :) This poem was almost like a song in my head, so I played with the words and rhythm. So happy you enjoyed it.
Thank you for reading and commenting @esther-emmanuel!
Everything done in the smoke.
There is a feeling that comes with seeing the flames rising from an horizon.
What message this has to send?
Thank you @zellypearl! I'm glad you found the poem interesting. The poem doesn't really have a message aside from letting yourself experience the sensual elements of life. :)
Oh I see. That's lovely
