The Intense Caligraphy Of The Human Voice Poem by Dónall Dempsey
The Intense Caligraphy Of The Human Voice
My words
whisper
tickle your belly
fall into
your belly button
lie there
all mixed up.
I write: “I love you! ”
with the tip of my tongue
tantalisingly slowly
across your taut belly
you shiver
with each dried letter.
“Tell me…oh...
...write it again...
...write my name...
...write your name! ”
until drugged
with love
the dawn
smiling upon us
both “pen” & “paper”
fall finally asleep.
I love the thought of words falling into a belly button, just as I love the sheer joy of this poem, the love that shines out of it...until, at last 'both pen and paper' fall asleep.

Oh I just adore this...this is tender and sexy in equal amounts and what any girl wants. I'm jealous of the woman in this poem. And the end bit of the 'pen' & 'paper' falling asleep is just divine. What I wouldn't give to be your bit of paper - you could write on me anytime. This poem made me feel like...like... oh I can't tell you! love Dee Dee
