SHE STOOD IN A SHADOWED DOORWAY

SHE STOOD IN A SHADOWED DOORWAY

by Robert Davidson

She stood in a shadowed doorway
Awaiting the appointed time of delight
Eyes mocking love as
Lips of lust gleam in a moon-blanched night.

She stood in a shadowed doorway
When I shattered the dark with a light
Claiming a fierce kiss on
The porcelain pallor of a face so white.

She stood in a shadowed doorway
The touch of her body against mine stuns
As our sexes meet
Vaster than explosions of vast suns.

Our lone paths cross, then are blown apart forever
As I got what I wanted, and she her cash did recover.
The scowl of pleasure's lips now scorn me ever
Point down to the pit, mocking this sated lover.

She stood in a shadowed doorway
Her look of reproach unnerves, conceives
A cool challenge while
My lust blew away like dead winter leaves

No comments?
Well, I'll fix that.
This is a WORK OF ART!
It reminds me of a Lord Byron poem called 'She Walks In Beauty.'
You display a good understanding of imagery and language here.
Keep writing my friend!
