Garnished Martini

Clinging rhythms from musical styles 
ignites my desire.
Can you dim the red lights? I crave a 
sense of cashmere danger,
It smells of peace and warmth, pleasure and vibrations, placing me in a butterfly zone.
Yet I hesitate to express my feelings on paper. Never want to get caught.

Luxury! Dining amidst wild jewelry, shoes,
and faint black dresses while I stand before 
a mirror, a glance game of goddesses.
It soothes my thoughts. My nasty smile.
I seek those side dishes with echoing flavours. Rolling my eyes as they slide down my throat.

The only liquid I’ll trade for water is you.
What else quenches my inner fire? 
Just like savouring steaks! I'll munch and 
get my lips stained. 
That’s the amount of juice you bring to 
my surface.
Nothing brings more calm than those suspenseful Korean visuals we watch together, reflecting our desires.
The chokes of laughter that freezes my brain.

My brown eyes, deep and thoughtful, 
gaze into your soul,
Embracing each moment. 
Yesterday was Jasmine, 
today is lavender,
Honey, could you send
marigolds tomorrow?
Their scent brings me closer 
to nature’s gentle mercies.
At last! The hugs from behind, 
the cuddles, I dream about it.
Call me spoiled, only by you
but I’ll always crave those too, HoneyBae.

Tonye, the way you describe desire reflects passion unbridled. I like how you admit some vanity and use images to create a sense of the depth of feeling and craving. The disclaimer about not wanting to be caught adds to the suspense of what comes next. The feelings we have on this subject tend to overwhelm, but you seem to have this all under control. You are making me smile inside right now--a feeling of happiness that comes from seeing something real. Thanks!

Your poem, Toney, is truly captivating as it delves into the profound yearning and longing for opulence, indulgence, and intimacy within a relationship. It explores themes of desire, pleasure, sensuality, and the beauty of ordinary moments. The language employed is luxurious and evocative, painting vivid images of opulence and indulgence through phrases like "cashmere danger," "wild jewelry," "savoring steaks," and "suspenseful Korean visuals." The poet utilizes metaphorical language to liken the speaker's emotions to being in a "butterfly zone" and the intense arousal brought about by the poem's subject.
