I imagine you lying beside me
black on black—skin to skin
I feel a fire of liberation deep within
I feel a cocoon of black love opening its arms so I can trust and fall in
the contours of your body excite my imagination and your lips are an invitation to sacred crime
our connection is a cosmic revelation that I try to capture in rhythm and rhyme
this is noir erotique and it is fierce, lush, and tantalizing
I blush when I think of you and when my mind starts fantasizing
black love and black pride give voice to a transcendent black joy
these forces give me transcendent pleasure and let my karmic serpent uncoil
