Poetica Erotica by Tim Cross is a collection of poems that are sensually rich, exploring themes of intimacy, sexual experience, and the depth of solitude. The author captures experiences of intimacy and longing with skill and transforms sexuality into a song that resonates with the hushed longings of the reader and awakens them to the pleasures of the flesh. This is a work for mature readers, but it is not written without some respect for the subject. At times the emotions captured are raw. The style is beautiful and there is a limpidity in the writing that makes for an enjoyable read. The music is felt in every line and the rhymes fit so naturally, one doesn’t feel as though they are forced.

Look at the author’s use of metaphor and imagery, describing a sexual moment.

As you lay in my Tiger lair
I will run my fingers through your hair
As I kiss and caress your curvy form
Then let you drift off, until the morn.

Poetica Erotica by Tim Cross is a collection of poems that spells out sensuality and is a reflection of the poet's interactions with different women at various places and stages. The poems reveal the poet's longing to interact with the women whom he finds exhilarating and exciting. Readers can feel the heat, the passion, the chemistry, and the sensuousness in the poems, and if readers of this collection happen to be men, it will make them look at women with a different perception and make them more aware of what makes a woman attractive and beautiful. If the readers happen to be women, it will make them appreciate their gorgeousness and look at their beautiful physiques in a different way.

The first four lines of the poem 'Just Seeking You' form the concept that runs through most of the poems in the collection and demonstrate the poet's thoughts and moods perfectly. It is difficult to choose my favorite one in this collection as all the poems capture the sexual appeal of a woman aesthetically. 'What a Woman Wants' calls out to all women and asks them to be more confident when it comes to expressing their needs and desires without being shy. There is an element of urgency, longing, and passion that runs through all the poems in this collection, and they also put women on a pedestal by making their beauty, sex appeal, and voluptuousness look and feel divine. The rhyming verses make the poems read lyrically and give them a good fluidity and pace.

Poetica Erotica by Tim Cross is a large compilation of succinct seductive and sensual poetry. In total there are one hundred and thirty-eight individual poems that are consistent in the author's chosen format, as each follows the same rhyme scheme: a closed couplet with two successive rhyming lines. Cross has increased this with two separate couplets (the second immediately following the first) to form the verse, although each couplet has the same meter to form a complete thought even within the same verse. The result is a pleasing collection of lyrical, often sing-song style poems ranging from realistic to fantasy, and from practical to philosophical. “I do seek and I want to find; That perfect woman with a naughty mind...”

Tim Cross has written an expansive anthology of poetry in Poetica Erotica, holding nothing back as the verses dance between the explicitly erotic and suggestively sensual. My favorite is called Little Red Riding Hood, a play on the classic tale in which Red Riding Hood's companion assures her that there's no need to worry about a wolf when she's with a wild tiger. Another is A Smile, in which the simple act of smiling is not so simple, instead hiding a multitude of messages behind it. Cross writes with an openness that makes the poems easy to understand and with a directness that I imagine those readers who prefer straightforward verses will find immensely enjoyable. "When I close my eyes I dream of this; Then I await our first passionate kiss..."
