A Poem by Ivan Jenson

Seductive Abduction

Now
that you have me
blindfolded and blind-sided
by your kinky kindness
and all tied up with future plans
while shackled to the
ball and chain of your
free floating flattery
are you going to brainwash me
into being a loving accomplice
like Patty Hearst
or will you send me to
your booty camp
where you will break me
down till I worship
the bed you lie on?
if so, you should know
you can always
undrape the willing
and anyway
you already had me
barbed and wired
captive and captured
at hello
