Al-Kahina (The Sorceress)
Al-kahina (The Sorceress)
Legends speak of a beauty that can
steal a men’s souls, rendering him will-less…
This titian haired minx
with liquid amber eyes,
undulating hips,
riotously intoxicating scent,
and honey covered lips,
carries herself as if
no one else exists.
When she dances
it is like a forbidden magic,
her abdomen rolls
as the ornamented dangle
of the jewel therein glints,
a sheen of perspiration
covers her body till it glistens.
Her breasts Rise and fall
as the rhythm carries her on,
she surges forward then back,
every swell of her curvaceous
body is a sinful attack.
Oblivious of the lascivious audience,
her serpentine movements
hypnotize and enthrall.
Her influence affects them all
like the flower of the poppy;
it’s smoke cannot be captured,
only enjoyed as they float aloft
for a moment enraptured,
before it comes to an abrupt halt.

I'm just mesmerized by the beauty of your work: the imagery both in words and in picture...simply amazing!
The quill after your pen name, that's the signature of a true poet, indeed!

Thank you so very much, I like to marry the image to the piece, it takes a while though to find the right one.

Wow! I am astonished, yet not surprised by the depth of your creativity Red...Your words come to life on the page...And I loved your reference to Kemet...I dig it, when folks know more than just peripheral history ;-)

Oh my friend there is so much more than meets eye and it is certainly not peripheral nor superficial.
But, time will tell how deep is the well. :-)
