Come Together, Right Now, Over Me

      2 Comments on Come Together, Right Now, Over Me

There are two of them.

Seated together but apart, side by side on the sofa, naked, cocks exposed and straining.

They are not to touch — not me, not each other, not themselves — not yet.

.

Call it imagination; call it fantasy. Whatever it is, this is a scenario I build. Sometimes the details are filled in — red leather sofa, goosebumps along forearms, button-fly undone, naked torsos (or shirts unbuttoned) (or wearing fitted T’s), bare feet (or cowboy boots) (or sneakers) (or socks), their faces taking on the familiar shapes and expressions of men I’ve known (or loved) (or despised) (or fucked). Other times it is a broad-stroke impressionist perception I create, less about zooming in on the details than about the wide-lens view filled with lust and bodies and space between us and the possibilities that fill it.

You Know You Wouldn’t Want It Any Other Way

I’m a bitch

“I love it when you’re mean,” he says, the words coming in a stumble-rush stutter that matches the shake-tremor of his limbs. Upon this admission,

I’m a lover

I sloooow

D
O
W
N

changing up my previously-punishing grip for a softer, looser, barely-there palm glide over his straining purple-veined arousal.

I’m a child

His sharp intake of breath makes me laugh aloud. That oh-shit-I’m-gonna-cum tell-tale suck of air just makes me want to play with him more. Like a kid with a temporarily-favorite toy (or a cat with a mouse)…

(Perhaps a puss with a toy mouse?)

(We all know the mouse never wins.)

(But it’s so.much.fun to toy with…)

I’m a mother

“Shhhh…”

I shush him, not because I don’t like his response — not that, never that — but because he needs to know it’s okay,

I’m a sinner

as *I* let go (of my shush-stroke grip) that he lets go (of his can’t-hold-back release)

I’m a saint

even though I’ve let go _just_ in time to make him work for it, to require his fuck muscles to flex, to be sure he’s pumping only the air before spilling over

I do not feel ashamed

into (ruined) orgasm.

Again.

ENCORE! — September Song Project II

      51 Comments on ENCORE! — September Song Project II

Shall we do this again?

Let’s do this again!

THE SEPTEMBER SONG PROJECT: MUSIC AS MUSE
the rhythm is just write…

This project started last year as a way for me to get my blogging groove back. I tend to spend less time in this space in the summers anyway, but last year with my husband’s kidney transplant and all the subsequent (positive) (but still difficult!) changes we were navigating, I was just not feeling inspired by *anything* come the end of August.

Not inspired by anything, that is, except music.

Music is – as the very word ‘music’ so aptly suggests – a fantastic muse.

And this year, what with the Coronapocalypse and compounding State of the World factors right now, I need a good muse again to help me get on with my musings. 🙂

So the month of September is going to be all about muses and music and musings while I get myself back in the rhythm of writing.

Join me?

Little Things (that cost very little) That Make Me Happy

      10 Comments on Little Things (that cost very little) That Make Me Happy

Is anyone else starting to feel (or been feeling, perhaps for a while now) in a funk?

We – many of us – are a bit stuck, I think. Stuck at home, stuck being alone/without-loved-ones-nearby, stuck in a mode{s} we don’t necessarily prefer when it comes to work, stuck financially, stuck for what to make/order for dinner, etc.

I’m feeling a bit of that myself, and since I typically am not patient with feeling stuck – in any way/shape/form, because control freak (naw, you’d never guess, I know — I hide it so well!) 😛 – I am reminding myself today that there are things in my life that I appreciate. Things that un-stick me. Things that make me happy.

And they cost next to nothing.

So here’s my list, in no particular order, of things that make me happy right now:
