Desperation

“Desperation never adds to a woman’s allure, remember that.”

June Reading

Special focus on stories written by Caribbean authors for the month of June. It is a fantastic chance to appreciate not only brilliant talent but understanding and digging into themes that revolve around Caribbean culture.

Your Eyes

Smile,
cozy,
come hither
mesmerizing daze
smothering always.
Heat transferred whilst I stare.
Feel the intensity build – breathe!
Hot! Who turned the oven on – whew.
Stop doing that thing you do, damn it.
I wonder if you felt the electric tug.
