Someone said that my last poem was tame.
This one's a bit obvious with the sexual undertones.
But it got me an "A" in my poetry class.
"FLOWER"
Sitting silently in the bare back room of the parlor,
I have no second thoughts or sudden fears.
I hear the groaning of the needle just before
Sensing the thrust of the stark, stabbing spear.
I gasp. For moments, I forget to breathe.
All of my senses fade from consciousness
And as my nerves and blood start to seethe,
The mute pain and forein pleasure coalesce.
When it was over, I felt no fear or regret.
The mark left on my soul and under my skin;
The little flower that bled; has ignited a torrid flame.
A fervent desire for this new, addictive sin.
But reason and logic were forgotten in the passion,
And worry fills my mind and heart--an aberration.
