Honey, mine
you’re my destiny
of darker than delight,
my doom
to slowly sizzle
in your arms
until sinfully
fulfilled.
You lead me barefoot
luscious, luminous
darkly
into sleepless sighs
through your secret portal
to our closing firework
and blossom blast.
You, my candy crush,
my thirst —
unquenched again,
and once again.
honey, mine
Cupid and Psyche by Auguste Rodin
Sarah inspires us with a list of names of computer games to play with at dVerse Poetics. I had fun with my games.
Björn Rudbergs writings 
Oh, lots of fun, Bjorn. Very sexy. And as you’re first in, you can be team captain in our poetry dodgeball game!
I love “luscious, luminous, darkly…” – great alliteration, and the repetition of “honey, mine” rounds it off beautifully.
Those names where really erotic I think.
Sounds like you had a good time with this!
The language is very colorful and sounds very playfull, candid and innocent.
Oh Bjorn….I’ve said it so many times and will again! You are the king of romantic and….yes….erotic poetry posts here. This is sweltering. And love how you began and ended with honey mine.
Now that’s a video game I wouldn’t mind playing lol
Very sensuous and enticing!
This is the flip-side to Sarah’s poem. Unfortunately, though Mars is awake, Venus has gone to sleep in boredom. She’s heard it so many times before…
I like this Bjorn. You worked in the game names very effectively. I liked the blossom blast in the secret portsl!
Like me, you have used a lot more than three game names. Everything fits the piece, zero awkwardness. Romantic, yes, but with a wink and a smile.
I avoided some of these because I couldn’t think of how to fit them without forcing the poem, but you’ve incorporated them seemingly effortlessly. Great write.
Ooops, posted in the wrong place! Sorry!
I like this Bjorn. You worked in the game names very effectively. I liked the blossom blast in the secret portal!
Yum.
Love how you have taken these solitary games and turned them into games for two!
Sounds like an MA rating for this set of video games!!
You most certainly did have fun playing games at night, Björn! I love the sounds in this poem, the ‘d’ sound in ‘destiny of darker than delight’, the ‘l’ in ‘until sinfully fulfilled’ and ‘luscious, luminous darkly’. And oh, the ‘closing firework and blossom blast’ – you’ve outdone yourself with sensual and erotic all in one poem!
So good! Love it.
A sensuous delight, Bjorn!
Nice phrase: “blossom blast”
You hid the words so well, like they were meant to be. I love the play on the title and the framing of the poem with “honey, mine”.
