"Like Aphrodite’s perilous steps, that found her fallen in the traps of love..."

Like Aphrodite’s perilous steps

that found her fallen in the traps of love

Adonis was whitened flesh,

Deceased delicacy, bipolarity, in gentle

Bittersweet bitten black irony.

Like the thunder that came

with the howling and hailing,

the mourning and mewling,

Violets rained vindictive, vending,

Voracity rose gold in the morning.

Sinful to play with,

the delicate demeanour of Life and Death,

Honey-voiced goddess and hunter,

Immortal and mortal thunder,

a desperate delicatessen request

Like a burning bittersweet sun-drenched present

the sinews and strands confined to spring-summer

of Aphrodite’s forsaken love

cast out of the Underworld in the aftermath of winter

Nuanced flowers, angelic for spring, merely

Bittersweet black bitten-back irony.

Like the undeniable, angel-induced, impending pain

of partaking in sensitive seduction,

Impermanent indulgence

Found Aphrodite amongst snowdrops

And Hellenistic arms in embracement.

Dewy, perfection splashed peonies

Loosened and lost in the lustres of love-making,

Aphrodite’s screams of ecstasy,

a commodity, conversed, confined

Above, away from the dark, day dreamily

IMPERMANENCE. IMPERMANENT INDULGENCE,

LOVERS LICKING AND LOVING LOST INSIDE LOTUS LEAVES

THE SOFT SWEETNESS OF SEX ON SEX

HONEY VOICED GODDESS HUNTER GODDESS HUNTER

IT’S ALL DREAMY REPOSE UNTIL HE LEAVES.

Winter claims Adonis in a bleak Underworld,

Aphrodite’s bleak heaven unfurled

An unpleasant dreamworld of settling fucks and fucks to settle- terse, perverse.

If you told her love through beauty was a blessing

She’d sadly remark it was a curse

That is except for, ultimately,

When the sweet seasons deliver

A temporary holiday from Death!

Her longing, cold Adonis

Warmed up by this perpetual swing

Honey-dew happiness for Aphrodite comes with the spring.
