'What do you like about her?'

Morgan wanted to shout at him, he wanted to pound on the table in front of him, saying, I love the way she pulls down her clothes, lies on her side and lets me lick and kiss her soft parts, as if I have lifted the dish of life up to my face and burst through it into the wonderland of love forever!

Ah! that mercurial first of a meeting
In a moonlit night of heated want
Every word she spoke made me fall apart
And be reformed in the flames she flaunt

Loved the link...
btw, about writing poetry: little bursts of emotion, I think of them as thoughts motoring along a speedway. Prose is perhaps a train of thought. :)
