Well, it's been quite a week!

On Monday, I got an email informing me that my poem 'Breathless' had placed third in the Seattle Erotic Art Festival's literary competition. It's pretty exciting to be recognized for something that you love doing.

It's great to see erotic literature getting recognized on such a high profile platform!


Haven

I do my crackfiend dance
get on my knees and beg

u got the thunder
u got the thunder

my storm within
a storm
my refuge
from the norm
my haven away from everything decent
in this world

you are chaotic
neurotic
and nasty as you wanna be

volatile like
skulls and crossbones
deeper than baritones

your love is like
like riding the rapids
like walking a tightrope with no
safety net
like russian roulette
and yet
submissive like
take me if you dare
if you dare
