Summary: Viggo may be ready.



He's sometimes wondered

quietly,
privately

If there might ever come a time

When he would step outside the familiar, perhaps

Set aside the commonplace, maybe

When he would move beyond the ordinary
the mundane
the vanilla...

If there might come a time

When he'd strain to better hear the seductive voices
Whispering to him in the night

When he'd explore the darker images
Flickering in murky shadows in his mind

When he'd reach for the hazy heat
Prowling just beyond his hungry dreams

Tonight
On his knees, and
Shivering
Beneath Sean's glittering gaze
Viggo thinks Someday

Might be

Now.

T.S. Eliot wrote: "No verse is free for the man [or in your case, the woman] who wants to do a good job."

Case in point: this remarkably laid out poem that charts a tentative journey, using language and space to perfection in illustrating the emotional nature of that journey. And here's what particularly thrills -- it gets more and more brilliant with each reading.

You have outdone yourself. This is definitely getting a rec. ♥
