… Noswaith Swyngyfareddol…

by Paul Tristram / December 10th, 2023

Half-Moon… ‘Peek-A-Boo’
… [Black] crushed velvet
and [Burgundy] kisses…
bring Passion… Cresting!!!
Twisting and Twirling…
Spontaneous… Chasing
… the word ‘Devour’ is
an [Emotional] Ghost Train
SCREACHING… our way.
‘Spin The Bottle’?
… I’ll bend you
right over the fucking crate!
Let’s open-up every single
Door and Window…
to let the ‘Ocean’… back in.

* ‘Noswaith Swyngyfareddol’ is Welsh for Enchanting Evening.
