Wow. Brian your poems are so short and simple and powerful. I really like that they communicate the feeling so precisely and clearly.
I like the last stanza. It is almost sinister in it deliciousness.
Hi!
Your assigned day for The Twelve Days of Poetry is December 14th.
It is up to you which poem of yours you submit.
Please send me a link to your poem at IlovetowriteSMP@yahoo with poetry in the subject line.
Thanks for taking part.
If there is any info about yourself you want our readers to know include it in the email.

Brian, just for once, like, for variation's sake, can you write a crap poem? It gets a bit boring having to write "excellent" under every poem here.
Oh well. Nowt can do.
Excellent. Loved it.
And hope you're recovering well of course.
Thought-provoking. "Layers" is an apt title, both with regard to imagery and meaning.
Been reading past posts. (Hope you're in better health, given the recent surgery.) "I am dragged by the nostrils / into bed with a beautiful woman" caught me by surprise; and what a delightful surprise it was. (Here's to the fantasy. Cheers.)
Ario - thanks for the compliments. there is sure some crap to be found somewhere. ;)
