Liv Waters 52360 Report post Posted October 13, 2013 Ordained Whore I'm an ordained Whore I don't know what to do! The lives in the ceilings The talk of the dew The secrets in the sessions The hold on the knob The crashing, pussy gnashing Locks, locks of love The light in my oval The light all a line To the place that is my knowing That place, all the time... 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nathalie L 112512 Report post Posted October 13, 2013 I really like this poem, Anna. Thanks for sharing. What inspired you to write it? For me it resonated because it really speaks to those moments we share with clients - those special and secret moments - that we can't share with anyone else. It's a private intimacy, and an intimacy that demands supreme discretion. I also like how you used the possessive pronoun at the very end when you said "to the place that is my knowing". Ultimately it is yours - yours to keep - yours to cherish - yours to own. It doesn't belong to anyone else. I hope you post more :) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The poem just came to me...I only write when feeling instinctively inspired to. I love that you noticed the tone the possessive pronoun took at the end..as, while the beginning-the 'ordained' quality of being conferred a Whore (or imagined as such)-relies also on the outside source, it is interdependent, and ultimately becomes inhabited, innately felt, and thus an intrinsic experience; an embodied source of power and knowing. One based in the sacred sharing of erotic space. What a precious vocation it is! ...to have so many amazing opportunities to connect with our clients the way we do :) Ox Edited October 14, 2013 by Anna Sweets Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
