  • mollusque I slept fitfully, and only in the small hours glided into a deeper spell (illustrated for no reason at all with the image of my first little inamorata in the grass of an orchard) . . . .

  • tolland Heck, with passion like that, I'd be your inamorata. Minus the sex, of course; devotion's just fine without it. Aug 13, 2008

  • super-logos My inamorata loves me,
    and I love her.
    Our sex is the best around.
    I'll die should she leave,
    Her sweet scent I will grieve,
    I'll be forced to find a new town.
