stradavarius

sterling manipulation
four, seven, eight, twelve

strings

the luthier extends
harmonics on high
attenuated aside
fervid throes of empty deaths
final breaths

swan songs of the bordello

Antonio braced
wooden strips
to curve of hips

bracing acoustic kiss

an aria
'neath finger tips

spill me to sleep
euphonic Spanish Prince

plant thy lips
abreast my nape
finger each arc and bow

melodious

drape me in rosewood
maple and ebony

a cloak of resonance

eclipse your silent screams
beneath each vibrato
until i am taut
within your grip

culmination restricted

an Electric Lady's
lament
concordant

a celestial indulgence

as that of evanescence
