A Little Bit of Sin (Book) - 7/4/2007 10:25:51 AM
Boy, am I incensed: LeeAnn, the waitress, is my daughter!
Well, not really, but there's such a realistic tone to this excerpt that I felt like I was right there at the counter watching this wench blow her cool.
Nice write, NikkiNicole. If your book A Little Bit of Sin is half as good as your excerpt, it'll be a hit for sure!

A powerful message delivered with great sensory delight.
But the woman in this poem is in emotional hot water and bound to get burned. Addictive love is omnipotent and all-consuming. Soon our dear lady will feel the tragedy of empty mug and used coffee grounds. "I'm willing to follow you at whatever cost" is a recipe for suicide.
But to crave someone is a high with no equal. And when you feel, "But, boy I think it's love," ya don't know nothin' 'bout how it's gonna get. Most "cravers" like to think they can sit back for a month or so and see, when they need to sit back for a year or so.
What we've got going in these verses is lust, pure and simple. Recognize it. It's okay so long as you're not deceived. While lust may not have the staying power of love, its intense "rush" is one of the joyful but sometimes regretable experiences of life.
By the way, NikkiNicole, when I'm free and if you're still available, my preference is French Roast early in the morn.
Yours 'til the next posting,
Richard
