Bingo Fill: Leather/Latex

[fuzzyred]

The first of my 12 written bingo fills, for the "Leather/latex" square on my Mixed Card. For this poem, I made a modified Nonet; instead of just going down in syllables, I also went back up. That wasn't my original intention, but I needed more words.

"Release"
-a modified nonet

Breathe in; the rich smell of leather calms.
Feel the smoothness across your back:
tails first trailing gently
over heated skin
only to
return
with
a
rhythmic
thud. Slow start;
growing faster,
increasing in force.
The sting begins building,
washing away the day's woes.
Harder still, bringing real pain now.
Ever closer; one final stroke - Bliss.

Not my usual genre... but that was nice.

Thank you! I'm still very much in the shallow end of writing, and I'm trying to figure out what works for me. Plus, that seemed a fitting way to go with that square and the fest.
