TWO LOVE POEMS OF DANCE AS MATING RITUAL

My Limax Maximus

Follow the trail of my scent

Nibble to signal the intent of your desire

Lead into a dance and an embrace tethered tenuously by the sticky bands of our mutual emissions 

Twirl until our hidden, inert appendages are released from their slumber 

Watch as they bloom and fluoresce 

Bloom until satiated

Part.

Relax and just move
