when she wipes her pussy with her legs apart
blood shakes my heart

Obie,
Personally for me, the individual words of "pussy" and "blood" make a horrible mix! I did not envision pretty or nice, all I saw were these individual words fighting with each other, causing an ugly site.

I attempted to appreciate the mere words of it, the poetry of it, the splendor of it; however, it being so abrupt, my usual appreciation of your poetical journey was stopped by a period.

Cecil, you never cease to be extremely funny and your insight becomes more and more keen and therefore so very revealing. Sorry about this angle I hadn't seen myself and thanks for it. "Blood shakes my heart" though, is borrowed/stolen/is an allusion to a poem by T.S. Eliot. I must share it with you sometime. This line has always gripped me. So very many thanks for regular visits. I love you fellow poet.

Cecil, concluded my remarks without including that, though I can locate and share Eliot's poem with you, what I cannot share is this most private moment, possibly lost even to me at this juncture, which inspired this sliver of poetry.

I shall bear it in memory though, most likely, until I expire. A sweeter visual experience I don't suppose I've ever had.

But for certain you have what is comparable and as private as many couples must: one lover unashamed and able to expose what must be what is most naked of themselves to the other.

I came across something wonderful in a love poem by John Dunn lately. The male speaker request that his lady in bed with him reveal herself to him as she would to a midwife.
