Sultry Eventide

by Gypsy Blue Rose

 

thirsty for your cherry lips

   and starving for your love—

I'm bound by an ardent yearning

for your passion and delight

~ I'm your slave and your lord ~

how can I not want you

you’re Venus in a gown of stars  —

during long summer nights

I ache for you during sultry eventide

sheets drenched with dreams of you

 

 




written in lowercase (except proper names) without punctuation
from a man's point of view (I'm guessing) lol you guys can let me know if I'm right

Gogyohka is a five-line free-style Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllable count but as brief as possible. Any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay but never rhyme. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe.
