Opal Palmer Adisa - Insatiable (from 'Caribbean Passion')

this has
got to stop
not the passion
us not being
able to resist
each other
the endless craving
in my groin
the hunger of
my lips
to taste
you
the pull
of my arms
to wrap you
to me

this has got to stop
not the unquenchable
desire
the tongue
massaging flesh
the arms
that caress
and enfold
but the interruption
of daybreak
the demands
of work
the intrusion
of friends
all those
petty things
that steal us
from each other
temper our
rhythm
wipe our
wetness

that's what has
got to stop
not you
deep in me
bodies thrashing
drinking love
from each other
not being able
to get enough
of ourselves

the moon
refusing
to surrender
her place
to the sun
us interconnected
riding waves
smelting iron
us resisting

drowning ourselves
in each other

this has
got to stop

but i pray
it never will
