You are the food I crave Delicious and so soulful I crumble at your turquoise touch Giving green sighs of delight Inspiring intoxicating Cajun kisses So hot and spicy uniting hearts Do you feel my love true blue Casting like fishing pole Hoping to catch only you And then cruise in your passion Feet never touching the ground For you send me sailing And at...

Premium Member Cajun Queen, New Orleans
Riverboat on the Mississippi Folks dining on scrimp, grits, and cornbread Drinking booze and gambling like crazy Going to Bourbon Street just ahead Down in that Cajun Queen, New Orleans The big paddle wheel keeps on rolling Down to the Cajun Queen of the Gulf Where the real money is unfolding And a thousand green bucks is small stuff Down in that Cajun Queen,...

Premium Member Swamp
As I watch the rain coming down in measured bursts onto the dark waters of the vast bayou. My mind notes the watery circles and bubbles that trace alligators asleep in the slough. I check my lines as the sun goes down. The wind fights me at every turn, causing my boat to rock. I've got three dead...

Cajun Creed Will Get Revenge

Premium Member My Cajun Backyard Nest
When it rains the grass grows greener and thick like a forest of trees in my back yard Mr. Bojangles, the housecat slowly stalks its prey of wizard-like lizards scattering away. With nothing but the sounds of crickets and cicadas heard humming now and then as the sun begins to settle down here in my hometown again. Cajun land with bayou bands alligators and crawfish...

Mississippi Masala
Hair as long as the Mississippi River, Eyes as dark as a bayou on a moonless night, kiss as sweet as a honeysuckle flower, and as dangerous as a rattlesnake bite. She's a southern sinful delight. Baptized by fire, she ain't like any other, her kind of lovin' makes the devil run for cover. Dancing in the fire...

The Pierced Nothing
Her skin is textured fabric and a lovely pair of…odd eyes of ink black and sheen green. Cherry cheeks, heavy-handed for his amusement. Lips sewn to silence just the way he likes her. Living only through him though she’s not alive. Criminals steal hearts as well at her lovely, warped sight. Her face overcome with raw beauty and unrequited longing…sometimes with every tick-tock of his...

Cajun King
I was born from infernal hell I'm the Cajun King I was born from infernal hell A land full of life and festivity Bring me to your Mississippi Queen She holds justice in the palm of her hands Wielding her attomica taking no **** Her blue eyes vicious and cold, never dull Courtship in the swamp, drinking white lightning Fireflies light up the night Nature...

Premium Member Cajun Pride
Cajun Pride Remembering an autumn day Floating down the river Where all his tensions flow away And the days just become a blur The current is always so mellow And the shore is beauty beyond compare Lined by age old weeping willows It is the answer to a river boy’s prayer The bayou is a special place Full of stories old Told slowly and never apace They...
