Sensual Symmetry

Juxtaposed Synergy. Original oil painting on flat canvas, 18” x 20”, © 2011 Tiffany Davis-Rustam.

This surrealist abstract expressionist painting alludes to sensual references, and yet I still want to leave something to the imagination, so I wrote a poem to illustrate the mood.

Behind closed doors, the key turns the lock, the red light ignites.
and the hushed secret exchange begins anew.
Tracing the lines of satin sunkissed contours
Grooving sweet sensual curves with rising desire,
2 lovers gracefully arch into 1 suspended form,
swooning curves between sacred mountains and valleys,
merging into each others divine altars, again and again,
whispering with joy until the exalted angels appear,
and carry them away heavenwards, in waves of shimmering effervescence.
