Seductress Poem by Clive Culverhouse

Seductress

Rating: 5.0


I was fine in my bubble
just some Moses in my own parting
and yes, you ruined my thoughts
and spun me in antonyms

I always wondered
why I prayed for apocalypse before sleep
and waking up, still whatever,
whatever, was always
outside

whispering planets secretly in my ear
you left me jungles and deserts,
you handed me worlds I never knew
what to do with
and all the time tempting me
to join with you
naked

One of my favourite of my poems. It is life, the universe and mother earth and the teasing and troubles thrown at us by them. I love this poem.
