“Intoxicating”
K.S. 2/17/13
Deep brown eyes.
A welcome surprise,
Supple sated flesh,
Melting almost, youthfully fresh,
Hair of staggering hues,
Straight but curled by sweated hours…looking new,
A voice, first ignored,
Chosen to hear more,
Presented as a woman dreamable,
Within reach but distantly untouchable,
You stood outside without attention,
But playing yourself into anything mentioned,
Tactile, touching, smiling and loving,
I was your victim, you saw in me something,
Your smile, your face…focused, but blushing,
Planting your interest and seed at time hushing,
Your dance, your touch, your persistence,
Beauty so realized your engagement, your admittance,
Stealing my heart, if just for this night,
Rhythmically dancing, sweat joined, hands grasped, our flight,
Innocence and carnal desires intertwined,
Between us, love, lust, youth and experience combined,
Hours seeming like years passed us placating,
My god…your feel, look, and taste…intoxicating.
The manuscript Blue Lines is the fictional coming of age narrative of a young California woman Key Yemaya Walker, and her 2 year growing journey through school, love, and life period piece, written by Kenneth Suffern, Jr., taking place at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill between the years of 1997 – 1998. Loosely based on true events, and experiences during that time, told through the eyes and voice of the main female protagonist, a freshman first attending the school.
