In
keeping with our blog hop theme of giving thanks, I’m grateful to
announce the release of yet another Coming Together book in which I
had a hand. Coming
Together In Verse,
edited by Ashley Lister, collects the poems of many erotic authors
(including yours truly). I was fascinated to see the list of
contributors, many of whom I know but whose poetry I’ve never
encountered.
All
proceeds from the book will support the animal rescue charity Hope
for Paws.
Anyway,
the book is out today. You can find details and buy links here:
And
just to whet your appetite, I’ll give you a short poem that I wrote
under Ashley’s tutelage. (It’s not in the book. I want you to buy
the book!) If you leave a comment (with your email), you could win a
copy of my story The Last Amanuensis, which also includes a
sample of my poetry.
Restraint
(Rondeau)
My
hands are tied, but were I free
I'd
suck your cock and sip your pee;
I'd
spread my lips so you could sense
the
aromatic evidence
of
what your voice can do to me.
My
flesh and heart in heat agree.
Unlock
them both; you hold the key
to
joy and anguish, both intense.
My
hands are tied.
You
think me lost. Why can't you see?
If
you should claim the whole of me
as
yours, I'd offer no defense.
But
you're a gentleman, and hence,
my
ring makes all this fantasy.
My
hands are tied.
Thanks-Giving

Happy Thanksgiving! Loved the poem and I am not usually fond of poems. Another wonderful post.

There aren't too many venues for erotic poetry these days, so this anthology definitely fills a need!

Thank you for the wonderful poem. You are an extremely talented writer doing both books and poetry. Not everyone can.

Enjoyed your poem. Apparently there is yet another anthology I have to read.
