He Held Her Once in Summer

He held her once in summer    

The stars swarmed in admiration as they danced in celebration of their love    

He remembered the fragrance of her skin as she whispered she would one day return forever    

That night they danced, seemed like forever under the full moon

Never Look Down

Never Look Down



Raindrops in life don’t always feel light,

Sometimes they come hard and feel like razor blades against my skin,

Ricochet by the wind like a bullet from the caliber of a gun,

But, grandmother always taught, no matter the cost…never look down.



Busy city streets,

Taxi’s passing by as swift as the smoke from a cigar,

I’m mistaken at times as one for easy sex as if I’m some rap video… Continue

Nurturing the Child called Hurt!

"Many people are nurturing and carrying the past the way a mother nurtures and takes sole responsibility for a child. When one fails to loose themselves from the hurt or disappointment, they find themselves not only BOUND by the issue but OBLIGATED to make it a natural part of life; choosing to live WITH it, instead of growing from it and becoming BETTER because of it."-Savaslas Lofton

Roses are the Color of Brown Sugar

Roses are the Color of Brown Sugar



Sculpted in time by the hand of God

Swaddled and presented to man in mature form

Eyes closed not yet exposed to light

Until finished, every curve of your frame made perfect.



The earth needs you

To help accent the colors of the rainbow

Give proportion to the mountains

Be the central thought to birds that sing

You have caused the wind to blow

Look how the autumn leaves dance at your… Continue

The person who fails deserves to give him/herself a second chance at life. No doing so, means aborting the possibility of a great legacy."-Savaslas Lofton

Savaslas how can I literarily be of service.

CONVERSATIONS
LISTEN!
Can you hear the un-kept truth of the words about to be spilled?
LISTEN!The charismatic energy spewing from gingered lips.
LISTEN!
Whispered secrets are important to guilty consciences.
LISTEN!
Capable are gestures at relaying skilled orders of emotions.
 
Emotions run deep
scattered in the heart
are bangs of spirits and souls
unfolding relinquishing
the foretold of journeys
shadows remembered
walls talking in cornered sentences;
LISTEN!

I pray that after my healing I'll be able to do as much as I did before. As I was recently released for burns.

Much love

Advice on Exploring Erotica in Your Writing

MediaBistro's Morning Media Menu had a conversation with author Jamie Brenner about advice for writers looking to explore this newly crowded genre. An excerpt from Brenner: My first erotic novel came out two years ago. The landscape feels completely different. There is not just the hope to reach a mainstream audience with erotic novel, but the expectation that success is reaching everyone, not just the genre readers. Fifty Shades of Grey really raised the bar for that. At the same time, working…See More
