Wilding
into the endless
depths of wanting.
where hungers are grown,
where appetites, unspoken
laid bare are sown.
where dreams whisper
and wanting touches wander.
were carnal needs
ignore caution's heed,
overcomed by desire's
longings plead.
on eager tongue
and pressed lips need,
a taste of ecstasy's sin
planted to seed
untamed,
unleashed,
the wilding
of a quiet desire.
