    Buried Within

    Before opening me
    Be sure I am what you want
    Because until now
    You have only seen my cover

    Are you prepared to discover
    The allegories buried within?

    Few attempted to delve inside
    But most failed to understand
    The underlying personal inscriptions
    That illustrate who I am

    Are you prepared to submerge
    Deep into the depths of my soul?

    Uncover what makes me smile
    And offers me solace
    Learn my causes of darkness
    And why I revel in the iniquitous

    Open me
    Stroke my pages
    Caress my words
    And explore who I am

    Hear the nefarious laughter
    That surrounds me
    See the vicious phantasms
    That cuddle with me as I sleep

    Let the faint aroma
    Of tear stained ink
    Be your addiction
    As you turn each page

    Are you ready to encounter
    My obsidian rapaciousness

    Take a risk, take a chance
    Open me
    Fondle me
    Learn all of me

    Learn what makes
    My velvety subtle breasts
    The color of pale pink tea roses
    Ache impatiently

    Learn what enables
    The sweet intoxicating
    Warm, shuddering breaths
    To escape my lips

    Can you release yourself
    Slowly and provocatively

    Are you willing to pour
    Without reservation
    Your love and your body
    Entirely into me

    Open me fervently
    Patiently peruse my words

    Open my center of paradise
    Release my inhibitions

    Familiarize yourself with me
    Identify me
    Embrace me completely
    And appreciate every part

    Memorize every lyric
    And every verse
    Know me from top to bottom
    Inside and out

    Don't hunt for selected phrases
    Or categorical euphemisms
    Don't read between the lines
    Or insert fallacies

    Unfold my cover
    Decipher me slow
    Enter my world
    Let me flow through you

    And once you are done
    Read me again

    I like the way it starts with vague but powerful questions and statements that set up the extended metaphor and it slowly builds into the imagery, much like a good story would develop its plot, and you pull the reader into the poem like a story seduces its lover. Great job!

    That is a very unusally descriptive poem. Each word crafted to the next, forming a visual story continually evolving ! This belongs in a book. Thank you for sharing.

    Straight to favorites. I love how this poem passively demands to be fully realized. You pour yourself with very arousing vunerability...

    What a great pleasure it was to read your poem. Beautifully done!

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
