Erotica remains taboo in this country, as compared to Europe.

I am not surprised. 

Nevertheless, a writing colleague of mine suggested that I quote,

" Sex it up... a tad! " 

Well... here's to the fruits of my labour! 

 

I believe that artists must challenge themselves to step outside of their comfort zone for their art.

It frees your creativity.

 I have the utmost respect for any writer who can scratch out a living from erotica.

 

 
"If you want art to be absolutely pure, absolutely untainted by anything, chances
are the art is going to belong only to you and to nobody else."

-Novelist Laila Lalami

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pleasures of the Night 

 

 

 

 

 

Your arms are drawing me near

With intentions perfectly clear

Sensual whispers in my ear

 

Do hold me, ever so tight

Through this, our effortless plight

For these pleasures of the night

 

This consummate look in your eyes

Whilst encompassed between my thighs

Sounds of sheer passion in my sighs

 

As you gently stroke me from side to side

Revealing emotion with no place to hide

Such fulfillment that cannot be denied

 

As we partake in our lovers dance

I attempt to match your cadence

An eternity to keep this endurance

 

Lost somewhere between love and lust

Doubting which emotion to trust

But ultimately, come we must

 

M' love, I must say this in jest

Though you have conquered me with zest

 Indeed...we must give 'it' a rest
