The hunger in the candlelight
a rush of breath
a breathing — tickling
circling like a satellite
crushing petals
fingerpainting slower still
as melting chocolate
drip onto our borrowed skins
pebbles of the little death
sipping drops of distillate
our hunger in the candlelight
By Momo
What am I hungry for? In 60 words or less… yes this does make sense, and for real toads I took only 40 words. It’s hard to make Mama Zen blush, so I better have some margin.

Björn Rudbergs writings 
Oh, my! I think I AM blushing!
A dares a dare… and Bjorn delivered
🙂
Well, now.
*fanning myself*
I’m not blushing. I’m just craving chocolate now …. >
My goodness. And didn’t this get my day off to an amazing start! I stopped smoking years ago, but right now, I think I could use one.
Ha.. it was a dare … so why not try.
I think I’ll try this particular dare as much as I can
… candlelight and chocolate and … well. I’ll give it a try 😉
Your description is all the more beautiful for its subtlety. There is much tenderness in the heat.
Gorgeous. The third, fourth, and fifth lines are my favorites.
very sensuous write; luv it
have a nice Friday
much love…
Like Misky… you got my attention with chocolate… ; )
“Tickling” sort of lightens it up for a minute there. Whew.
glad you didn’t make it any longer… the tight write spoke volumes
Yum…on so many levels…lovely vision, Bjorn.
Thank you Hannah.. 🙂
Love how it comes full circle. Beautifully sensual!
Oh….I think I’m hungry for that too!
This was vivid and descriptive. Like some of the others, I kind of want chocolate now 🙂
sexxay! and delicious.

there is something so sensual about fingerpaints in my opinion…ha…..nice piece bjorn
I love that you made Mama Zen blush with your description of this particular ‘appetitie’ 😉
I am blushing now ~ Love that fingerpainting of melting chocolates ~
Sensual, beautiful
“hunger in the candlelight” – epically poetic . . . and very sensual.
Subtle sensuality 🙂
