Greetings, my lovelies. After I found this splendid poem, an overwhelming sensation took over. I could hear a faint voice beckoning for me. The voice playfully pleaded that I share this work with others. How can I deny such a request?
I awaken from a codeine induced slumber
All energy’s been sapped leaving and empty husk
That becomes more decrepit with the coming dusk.
Erotic nightmares repeated without number.
There is no solace for this lust addicted soul.
Fitfully sleeping in the midnight hour,
I dream of the body I hope to devour
While the succubus demon consumes me whole.
Sexual bloodlust unleashed in gasping spasms
The vicious struggle leaves me drained, exhausted;
So strenuously have I been accosted.
Then, again I return from nocturnal chasms .
There’s no reverie in lying on sodden sheets.
Like dirty ash and debris after a fire.
Love has been extinguished by carnal desire.
Faux promises turn into grotesque deceits.
Supplementing my breakfast with fortified wine
The cracked mirror reflects my ghastly demeanor.
Daily, my haggard visage grows ever leaner,
I’m a fugitive of dreams I cannot decline.
