Swirl me dizzy, darling
spin my mind,
I will follow, dearest
dance me wild.
Lead me darkly, sweetie
don’t be kind.
Lust will take us, sugar
into exile,
far and further, far away
close and closer, let us sway
tethered, bound
in darkness drowned.

Dorothea Tanning
Back from a long absence into writing again. Today De hosts the quadrille at dVerse and how fine that the word today is spin, which to me remind me of dancing.
If anyone wonders what I have been up to; me and my wife went for a long hike (ca 1300 km) which we finished last Wednesday.

This is a marvellous use of words that certainly puts me in a spin Bjorn!
Thank you… spin is a great word
*Welcome Back* Bjorn! You have been missed. There is always that temptation to say fuggitall isn’t there.
Of course… just dance.
this is a beautiful, sexy poem, Björn! And I imagine that your hike must have been amazing too ❤

Of course the hike was fantastic.
Love the dance movements and beats. Good to read you again Bjorn. That was a wonderful summer adventure and goal. Welcome back!!!!
Thank you… it feels both good and a little bit sad to be back.
Welcome back, Sir! What a wonderful Quadrille, with a nod back to our very first Q-word, dance! LOVE it.
Exactly my thought.
my head is spinning at the distance you covered and yet you still found energy for spinning to this 6:3 beat
🙂 nice to spin
Welcome back, Bjorn. Hope you had a great hike. Fun poem. 🙂
Thank you
I really like the “spin” on your descriptive words in this poem. Nicely done.
Thanks … nice to be back
Welcome back, Björn!
Your poem is a spin through darkness and light of the soul.
The dark side of passion fascinates me.
I’ve noticed. 😉
Lead me darkly, sweetie
don’t be kind.
tethered, bound
in darkness drowned..,
Signature stuff!…what superb double-play this is…no light fluffy dance, despite appearances…
The light and fluffy is not for me 🙂
Such a beautiful and seductive dance. Lovely.
Darkly so
I love this love poem! The action is dizzying and real; the wildness and uncontrolled feelings pulsate through the words. Well done!
To drown in passion is something so enticing (and dangerous)
Welcome back, I was starting to worry about you…wonderful to read your words again. Swirl me dizzy that is a dance one wouldn’t forget.
No problem with me… and the bartenders knew and could follow us on instagram.
Welcome back. That was some hike!! Great use of the prompt!
Thank you… it was the second time we did that type of hike.
Sultry spinning.🫠
Spinning is fun.
Missed your poems for a while.
Nice quadrille Björn style
much♡love
Thanks
You expertly made my head spin! Well done!
Welcome back! This is really wonderful. Intimate imagery, lovely rhyme.
Thank you, and I’m glad to be back
Lust can spin out of control! Welcome back from your happy hike, Bjorn 🙂
Thanks and being glad to be back.
1300Km is hardly a spin Björn so good you came back to this prompt. You must have calves like tree trunks now…
My calves are more lean and mean….
Sexy poem with great illustration to match!
A stunning quadrille, Björn! 👏 I envy your hike 💕
I like the contrasts you spin here farther away- closer, the paradox.
