This somatic need
So cloying and demanding
Overwhelms the spirit
It is a tether
To a darker underground
Where we all depart light
Here a spectral sylph
May entice the unwary
To naked awakening
The final passing
Skin to seamless skin
On the path to hell

For mindlovermisery’s wordle prompt, at http://mindlovemisery.wordpress.com/2013/05/26/prompt-5-wordle-challenge
This week’s prompt was a wordle challenge with a distinctly supernatural theme, so I hope the result fits!

Oh wow Helen I almost think you are a mind reader you produced such a beautiful poem so quickly it seems like you already knew what I had in mind lol This is awesome love how you have used the words =) Now that you mention it my wordle does have a very supernatural quality lol
Thank you – that was how it felt… maybe great minds just think alike, LOL! 🙂 🙂
I guess they do lol
A really nice piece 🙂
Thank you! 🙂 🙂
Loved seamless skin to seamless skin. For me this need fulfilled would not necessarily be on the road to hell unless it is seamless skin that should remain unpassed. (well you got me thinking)
Thank you, I think the words combined just gave it an eerie, portentous feeling so the final line sort of wrote itself…but yes, skin to skin does not have to be bad in itself!! 🙂
Whew.
LOL! 🙂 🙂
awesome piece – I was a sylph once – many times – in a ballet called Les Sylphides! I haven’t seen this word in ages!
Cool, thank you!! And mindlovemisery gets the credit for highlighting the word sylph for use in this prompt! 🙂 🙂

‘The final passing
Skin to seamless skin
On the path to hell’
Oh dear me! Hope I don’t take that route!
