Andean Lover

Contributed by Lufergon on Wednesday, 23rd April 2008 @ 02:57:40 PM in AEST
Topic: drugabuse



It’s that itch you can’t scratch crawling beneath your skin. Histories of Inca culture your natural essence holds, Andean lover. Aiding mothers and children across the barren landscapes of high altitudes your value stays honest.

Like the very lands raped by colonization your virtue is degraded and your metamorphosis exploited feeding the hungry wolves of the northern parameters. Weighed in grams your value masked by a new doctrine of extravagance and wealth.

With consent I invest in you, my sweet object of desire. I’ll uncover your pretty packaging delicately on the most smooth of surfaces. Your beauty deserves no less than its reflection on my compact mirror set, and your features only chiseled by the sharpest of blades. Lustrous love, you seduce me to succumb to your power by promising endless riches for my affection.

Bliss has entered me once I breathe your essence. Sharpening my senses, strengthening my spirits, improving my being- you mold me into temporary perfection. Velvet runs down my veins while my neurons coordinate a waltz. Images of your decadent silk patch my bleeding pores making art with the contrast of my human rot of rust and dirt against your shiny white complexion.

Knowledge of the wars I’m feeding, the children I am helping deprive of a fair life in Andean regions, and the spoils I’m aiding in the destruction in my back-yard society fueled by violence escapes me not, yet heaven holds more weight at the moment-my personal salvation, my damnation.

Gorgeous, wonderful imagery. Before I read the topic I thought you were talking of a woman! You've crafted a wonderful piece of need and indulgence. I applaud you!

Creative in the way in which you wrote this. Nicely done.
