The historic blending of religious ritual and sexuality predates the temple priestess/prostitute. Sacred prostitution in goddess temples was a common practice among the Canaanites as well as along the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers until the practice was forcefully ended by Emperor Constantine after his conversion to Christianity in the 4th century. Sacred prostitution’s origin in prehistoric fertility rites has been postulated from archeological evidence linking sexual fertility with early people’s desire for agricultural fertility.
The Bible’s exclusion, in Deuteronomy 23:18-19, of the “kedeshah” or consecrated woman/ prostitute parallels women’s exclusion from many religious obligations. Thus it’s not surprising that a modern Jewish woman would modify a ritual she passionately desired which has been denied her by the orthodox establishment, and blend it with sexual passion to create her own personal religious / sexual ritual.
You’re not done yet
“You’re not done yet,” I sneer
as I walk into the room
while he’s unwinding
the flat black leather thongs
He wraps my wrists and fingers
to the thick heavy bedpost
then seven times around my arms
the black boxes dandling in my face
Crouching, I rub my lips and cheeks
across the shiny leather
He slides under me
then inches my panties
down my legs
as I plant tiny kisses
along the flat black surfaces
of one; then the other
while lowering myself
slowly
thighs wide open
toward his face
Scented juices cover him
while I suck on both boxes
wanting to be filled with
the words inside them
thrusting hard
I rock on his face
till I tremble, scream and
collapse into myself
