 I open that old book

picture of you falls asunder
Your face down photo on the bureau
writhes
I finger toss you
only to retrieve
the glossy one
for contemplation's sake
resting it between my soft places
to see if it stings
or recaptures
within me that quivering.
 
My head rolls back
memories cascading
rolling diasporas
clutchings
unspeakeries
long unspokens
gnawings
gnarlings
you enter again
my heart
my loins
and I am lost,
stretching,
place you back
but too late
you are tabernacled
and I am lost
again
behind my soft
murmurings.

Rolling diasporas in the tabernacles of my mind! Circumscribes it for me. This was a wild roller coaster ride into the Lonnie tunnel of love. Or was it? A+ for originality.

I believe I've written it before, but you are a master at romantic poetry. This one reaches the very core of the mystery of attraction. How a simple photograph can elicit such feelings is something that is quite profound and you have captured it in a bottle of love.

Behind the Gates: Behind the Gates: A 1990s Hollywood Romantic Suspens by Lisa Maliga

The higher you go into the hills, the deeper the secrets... A seemingly innocent piece of mail shatters the illusion of Beverly Hills luxury, forcing a terrifying statement from a powerful action movie mogul: "they can't kill us fast enough."
