Sinister Love Poem by Alexandre Nodopaka

When one just learned
how to make a real good Mojito
one experiences bliss in small sips
and discovers godlike feelings of elation.

In that moment becoming in small portions
a spiritual hostage overdosing on Paradise.

My own craving fills me with horror,

says Phaedra to Hippolitus
adding in self-prophecy,

I turn against myself to safeguard myself
against my sexual gourmandism.

And falling at his feet, she confesses,

Observe a woman depraved.
