The Final Thrill

by Anne Engelen

Thinking of you

 

Touching skin

Soulquaking vibrations

Erupting sensations within

 

Time

Seems to stand still

My pleasure at will

 

Yet

Reality’s waiting

To disclose its final thrill

Oh yes... the desire, the anticipation... I like the final verse because it lends itself to interpretation - I can go several ways with it. And btw, welcome home again, dear one!

The quality and the intensity of association is capable of producing an impression capable of producing the vibrations this beautiful minimal of yours is transmitting. The 'charge' is definately positive and so full of life. So much that the senses refuse to budge compelling time to almost a stop. 'yet Reality's waiting'. 'The final thrill' is still afar.

Gorgeous words that very much match the feeling they convey; the hammer's going to fall at the end.

short but not stunted, insightful and bittersweet.
