D.U..ET. (a poem by Christopher Lee & Kalonia Jennings

i

glanced at the image of her shadow in my mind

and

and had never laid eyes on her

* I touch his face and kiss his lips

as he daydreams

waiting for Him to discover me

as his star

I

caught the faint whisper of a sweet scent

as if she had passed in the night..

quickly

she lingers there and

sweetens the back of my palate

* I leave messages of my love for him

on the winds. With strict instructions

that they stay til he closes his eyes and savors me

that familiarity is

what has me smitten

the sweetest deja vu i have ever witnessed

* So long, I have been with him

I am a memory

So long apart

I am a dream

I am always faithful

i rely on her smile

i

hinge my moods on her lips

i

dream of the cascade of

sweet serenades

that she

reads to me from Books never published

but she scribes deeply into my heart

* pen in hand

I find the words in me

unspoken

I bleed from our separation

and I write those words invisible

for him to find

skin on skin on sin but what can be wrong about a dream?

a dream of

eye to eye... open gazed orgasmic expressions

never look away

* looking deeply behind his eyes

I see more than pleasure of the flesh

but, of the soul, heart and mind

I'm captivated by the faces u make 

even when u

...

i study movements i have never seen

..

she sways with a dance beneath my caress

and i

i relive ecstasy

just being in her presence

* if only I could find you

I would recount the moments

we spend together in our minds

i think

i think she would

cry

* I would cry

and i would

comfort

starting with the smiling curve of her bottom lip

or maybe she..

maybe she would

nuzzle me with her nose

evoking a blush

* I feel so safe in my innocence

with you

or maybe i

maybe i would

urge her to an upper position and

her locs would tickle my nose

* stroking my cheeks across his beard

to create memories

listening to the sound he makes

when he shifts in his sleep

its the little things

*it's the little things

the

singular drop of sweat from her brow onto my lip

* the way he licks his lips and smiles

the tingle of her bangles in the summer night

* the way he holds my hand before he kisses it

the gentle,

gentle giggles elicited from

a joke whispered in private

* the gravity in his voice when he laughs

the feel of her softness...

* the feel of his strength

i want to press her into me

and take her

aura home

* I want to relax into him

and breathe deep

like she is the

master copy

and i

i wear the imprint

* he is the prototype

and I am the blueprint

we are the perfect notes to an unwritten melody

the perfect duet

yet we sing alone 

of

seduction

Blue

eyes of brown sugar backed by
a smile of blue
she sought
continuity of curvature
to speak without the utterance of one sound
but i heard every word
all the makings of
a classic
beauty by
mine own standards

• she defined purpose in her stance

• others reveled in the obvious

• and i

• longed for what was

• deeper

• my

• mind was tickled and giggled at

• reasonings that filled her that

• soared above the minds of the average

• i was awed

• she wasnt impressed

• 
  

• "its just me"

• she said

• as i

• marveled at the caramel simmering

• beneath

• this fleshy kettle of fire

• and traced lines with invisible fingers

  that merely started at her legs

  and ended at infinity

  so it is unneccesary to comment

  that

  the caress is forever

  rooted to both earth and man by locs of Queendom

  and the heart by sincereity

  and the eyes by a smile of blue

  an unshakable essence

  she possessed

  that i wished to bottle

  but who can bottle the spirit that is free

  without

  killing

  what intrigued ur mind from Genesis

  and

  returning her smile to blue

  i pray that if i were to be haunted

  she would be my tormentor

  and

  if i were to be blessed

  she would don the wings

  of my

  guardian angel

  locs of wool caressing the

  side of my cheek as

  eyes meet and

  lips contact

  and meld into

  this sweat inducing dream

  i smell her breathing
  i feel her cry
  i arise
  she
  escorts
  we
  travel
  who arrives
  inconsequential
  i came before i went
  fight the feeling i must the desire to

  crush the memory of this nymph into my soul
  she is forever etched there and
  i have never

  seen

  more
  than the 
  Idea

  of she with the smile of blue

..In regard to my search for the perfect sunset

I think she probably scribed

the most perfect lines across the crown of the sky

that I had ever seen

Shining light into the lowest valleys and

Burning the glades and their shade with a

Quiet brilliance

Even thru her haze she managed to illuminate

other dark days

And with subtleness show us all another way

She Darkened my melanin and showed me ways to be a black man

again

She reminded me of my mother

Warming cool days and making things alright again

or At least to endurable for now

I watched her pursue her dream as she settled in the west every night.

Oft i dreamed of pursuing her but

she ran too swiftly along her track

So far away she would wander

I wondered if she would come back..

Alas for the wings of Nike

I would give a jewel

To follow just once

But in my 3rd eye I knew only a God

could look in her eye

I half-human

So every eve I would pray her vision not see tears

as I sit along the coast of the Pacific and

watch her explode into arrays of amazing color..

reaching out

as if she were rubbing my hand to say

"Maybe one day

Never is always worse than late

Who knows what sayeth the Fates.."

And if not for this human and weak body

I would sit forever on this beach

tearfully

but happily regret

My failure to capture

The perfect sunset

HE

warmed me up like the 1st day of spring ,

She surprised I in her Sunshine State,

I

Wish to know flowers

Wish to know hours on end enveloped in

You

And I

Just He and I

his hand over the small of my back

and

my

hands playing in his locs,

My

mind is on one thing,

staying in the moment with this King

I

his diary,

HE

whispered to me all his pain and defeat

no tears

just ink

flowing with each word

gently caressing

My

lobe

I

leaned

into the hold

of her soul,

SHE

wanted me to see

SHE

I

wanted familiarity with

WE

Longed for the dance

WE

Shared In Our Minds

IT

was so inevitable

I

kiss his words...

making this dance sacred

his thoughts

go

from pain and defeat

to

conquer and retreat

...the pace of this dance

moves a little

faster than before

....phrases forming

and

my ears

yearning for me....

i will never tell

express it all to

ME

See

SHE

had body

I gave SHE curves,

the stanzas

erotically

danced

in verse

all care to the wind ..

all whispers silent

.. blanket my private

... intuition with ur

sultry essence

WE

survive

the inkletting

WE

don't bend unless it BE

to the will of this

sexy serenade of the pens...

DANCE

like I never knew how like

I never was able

insects of men she has made

but ME

she made KING??

Grateful to the offering..

pauper in the inkwell,

until her

thoughts sex with mine..

mind?

feelin some kinda way

feel the rhythm of my strokes,

its like being the

yellow, red or green crayon

in the crayon box..

im stuck like glue...

waiting

to be peeled off the palms of school kids
