Excerpt From 'Bound To You'
Bound in chains the little goddess lay, her handsome face
Tear-stricken. With rusty gyves at her slender ankles
And talon scars at her hips, she slept a slumber unsound.
Naked she lay, her body a bony melee; I imagined her
Fed and drunk, fattened; a smile on her pouting lips
And suddenly I saw a young goddess for a slave girl.
Her rosy lips were sincerely distracting, I knew not why
I wished to kiss. So beautiful, I wished to touch
Her skin. The scent of her, alluring musk-rose apt to coax,
Capture and kill. I shrouded myself from her as she woke,
Not wanting her to see me, though her dove gray eyes
Pleaded me to let her. She was love-light in all intensity,
I closed my eyes to lose the gleam. But the goddess,
She was irresistible. I lose sight except for her, for
Her is all I see. I turned her away, though I longed
Her embrace, wanting to drive her out of my mind,
But she stood planted in my brain as she rooted
Around in my poor heart. I spurned her loving lips,
Refusing her bestowed blessing, spiraling into misery,
Grieving sin. Does the little goddess know
She has stolen my heart? I love her. But how can I?
I am an abomination, unworthy of her,
And she a goddess. Could this be?
In love with a pure creature, me?
