The overall image of my room is erotic. To call it a bedroom would really be an insult. It is a boudoir, decorated in rich cherry furniture. With the focus on a sleigh bed that holds a soft feather mattress, and black semi-transparent mosquito netting cascading down from the high ceiling, which ends draping delicately over the headboard and then down to the floor. A black and cherry colored ceiling fan circles lazily over the middle of the bed.
The window coverings are made from translucent cloth in a rich eggplant color, to match the bedspread, with a matching valance draped across the top of the window, falling to the floor in a puddle of fabric, with sun blocking accordion shades underneath. Even at high noon, the room is blanketed in a gentle darkness unless artificial light is added.
There are nude paintings and art objects everywhere your gaze lingers, a variable anthology of erotica. Included in the dรฉcor are dozens of candles, feathers, honey dust, bottles holding body chocolate, handcuffs, a complete tie-down set and a blindfold. The room is a habitual playground for Eros.
After completing my nightly female rituals, and lighting a bedside candle, I climb into the softness the feather mattress affords my naked body. Music is softly undulating across the room, and the flow of air stirred by the revolving fan creates shadows from the candlelight, and makes them dance sinuously across the vaulted ceiling.
