Oranges

Painting Composition Tips for Beginners | How To Create Bolder ...

There is a way to eat fruits.
The bites, cuts, peeling discloses a lot about the process,
about manifestations, prayers.

The layers are a cryptic code,
defining a particular gender.
What do you name Oranges?
A blossom of Goddess or the sweat of a man?

The tender skin hides the juices
of fervor and desires

step 1: Do not gulp it easily, it might choke you.
Step 2: Observe the underlying dots & thickness of the zest.

Step 3: Divide it into a group for easy naked observation.
Step 4: Rub the Albedo.
Step 5: Open the part and drink the nectar.
( Do not hesitate to sprinkle the skin on the face)

Splash,
the flavoring chemicals begin to revolve
& this is how it falls inside your mouth
with a sky of teak words,
creating lust with teeth.

There is a way to eat Oranges
with harmony dancing.

  3. This is erotic piece loved it as usual..you try to look the list in very different way..I mean if I write that I would imagine orange as women’s part or orange as women..you did the second but ina unique way..Maybe I should term this way of poetic writing as mapping..I really loved that line where you expressed the external body parts of two genders as cryptic code to find what he or she is.. that’s wonderful…I mean this poem is relateble ot both genders..as I am guy I imagine women and her body.
    And then blossom or maybe blossom of goddess as orange ..that’s common metaphor like many poets have expressed the same ..but never expected that you would compare orange to man’s sweat drop❤️❤️…that’s one line I really liked..and the steps to enjoy the physical beauty…the first step as a warning..waaah..that a wild line..erotic at its best maybe imagining women saying”,don’t eat me at once you can’t take it”,was so sensuous…and then steps of poetic lines follow like disciplined kid or disciplined teacher in bed who governs his or her lover.
    And chemicals revolving is another beautiful line..that gushing of the harmones and all..and” sky of teak words creating lust with teeth”maybe here body is compared to some kind of designing likea home I don’t know..and how you design the body of opposite gender with teeth like weapon or something else…This is one good poem devika..I mean the way you created the skeleton was no less than a tempting tablet..the poem and words itself create lot of imagary that gives the mood..but creating those steps in the poem is 🔥🔥🔥👌👌👌🔥…lovelyyyy.. delicious to my mind
