Aphrodisiac

A generous portion of love
A little sex
In an aphrodisiac of moments
Molding spiritual nature
And animal nature
Celebrating that which is unique
And wonderfully human
Letting go
Trusting ones instincts
And the subtleties of arousal
Three pillows
Silk stockings--black, seamed
A blindfold
Rose petals
Two ice cubes
A feather
One hundred candles
A silk tie or scarf
Bailey's Irish Creme
Chocolate pudding
A mirror
A video camera
Listening to ones senses
Ones body
Taking time
Listening to self
Watching her
In this intimate interlude
Where God would approve
Between an imaginary husband
And his imaginary wife.
