Erotic Flirtation

[Matt_the_poet]

Eroticized

The room is adorned with myriad women
But my eyes focus solely on you.
I observe every change of your facial expression
And absorb everything that you do.
The refraction of light into my retinal space
Starts a pleasurable chain of events;
The chain-reaction begins as my pupils dilate
Craving more of the images you’ve sent.
Trying to balance foolish against brave,
I dare a glance at your contours and curves
As your voice reaches me in sensual waves,
A flowing formulation of words.
My visual and auditory senses delighting
Whilst urges driven by the others I am fighting,
Your messages mixed, though some do seem inviting!
I’m yearning for touch, and olfactory sensation,
To maximise my sensory exposure,
And a taste of the delicacy that provokes excitation;
A taste to play with and experience and savour.
My passion is rising, growing to the size of my ego.
A question arousing; from here, where do we go?

You seem to talk about "her" as a set of body parts. Is there nothing more to it?

[Matt_the_poet]

What are you talking about? I discuss eroticism from the perspective of the five senses. We are, after all, dealing with a situation in which emotions have yet to play any part, the initial stage of visual attraction and stimulation.

I think you probably lack manners or perhaps forum type etiquette.

Try introducing yourself, instead of ramming polls down our throats, ease in gently my Eroticized friend.

[Matt_the_poet]

I think lacking forum type etiquette is a fair criticism, though I'm not lacking in manners, I can assure you. I'll become more accustommed to the ways of the site in time, and as for the poll, don't they just add a little fun? I really like when someone includes any kind of poll, serious or otherwise.

[camus]

Ok I mistook you for an idiot, apologies.

Welcome indeed.

I must agree I'm a big fan of lists, polls I guess have that same addictive quality.

cheers

eek.

quack.

[camus]

Well to be honest the polls seemed a little one sided. As in this is what the answer should be because I think so, this is the pointless alternative. Hence contradicting the whole idea of a poll.

But hey lets not get into all that nonsense again, lol.

As I said welcome Matt, look forward to more poems, perhaps poll-less.

[Bombadil]

His first day and already you're suggesting castration?

Harsh. Emasculation cometh but once in a man's life...

Maybe when he's been here three days then we bring out the penile guillotine...

(Wicked laugh)

[Virago]

sorry, not keen- I don't find it erotic to say things like "The refraction of light into my retinal space " but it's unique, I'll give you that! Maybe you're trying to be ironic...

I don't like the inversion of word order in "Whilst urges driven by the others I am fighting" seems a bit forced.

Can't help but think this line defines the poem "My passion is rising, growing to the size of my ego."

Sorry Matt

p.s. a little tip I picked up from posting in forums, don't take it personally, accept any critique with good grace and if someone is rude or obnoxious, ignore them.

All the best.

[Bombadil]

Kris,

You can be rude. I'll be obnoxious. Tomorrow we swap.

Sound good?

[Virago]

i didn't mean you, you pillock- it was a sweeping comment! LOL

[Bombadil]

I don't think I've ever been called a pillock before. Come to think of it...I've never seen the word before. Thank you for broadening my horizon(s).

[Virago]

LMAO

[Thomas]

I would run seems to focus more on the other person as a object ,Not a person.....

that makes two of us Tom.

[Matt_the_poet]

I thank you all for your contributions, and must confess that the girl in question, a gorgeous, sexy French 20 year old called Marlène, RAN, though I must add that I think that discovering I was 33 had a little more to do with it, but hey, you can't win em all!
