BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
by Paul Curtis A pulchritudinous creature Oblivious to the turmoil Stirred in a young mans chest Tamed the beast in me Sublimating me From my true desires Quelling the fires Redirecting my passions Reemploying my sexual energy So we partake Of the socially acceptable Exercise our creative bent Until the time is right That blessed moment When love supplants lust And passions flame can burn I am a fifty something family man with a passion for writing and I draw inspiration from those around me. paul.curtis1956 @ btinternet.com http://www.dreamagic.com/poetry/poetry.html http://www.peculiar-poetry.com/ Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
