"Wicked"
The motions were slippery as seen
from across the room.
Slippery and intent with a desire
wet and longing and relentless
and without repent.
Serpentine, wily contortions of skin
and flesh and fibrous sinew,
all solicitous.
A half-glanced swath of other patrons
creating occasional impediments
to full-on sight.
Each glimpse made sweeter still.
Each pulse, each beat, each breath
in harmony with the movements,
yet discordant and impetuous.
Each second more intense until the world
became a nerve and pain and love and
sex and God and pleasure were all
electrical.
The illusion of it all when seen across the room.
Her body never ceasing.
Wicked.

Poetry: Wicked
by Lilly Mantra
You're evil, heartless - wicked,
Rotten at your very core -
So nasty and so mean,
Not a redeeming factor, I am quite sure!
Lying
by Hanna Joseff
Wicked sense, journey into the unknown
Walking past, whizzing by, shadows cast aside
Looking down, ignoring what's beneath
You Call Me Wicked . . .
You call me wicked
Because I don't walk
The same path as you.
I don't condemn others
Or say they'll
by Jamie Morris
Wicked
All I see in your eyes
Tells me that all my lies
Will never amount to alibis
Though I continue to contrive
To wring out
Wickedly Beautiful
Wicked, darling, simply wicked
Decadent and daring
That lacy little lingerie
Beneath the dress you're wearing
