Open House Madness( deicated to Geezer's KILLER LOL)

Welcome!
Come step into my dream
I'm sure you will find
things are not what they seem

Your host is in the kitchen
he has become the main course
the places that are dined on
are his pleasures source

Now what is going on over there?
how many people can fit in one chair?
arms legs assorted body parts
hard to tell where one ends
and one starts

Baby kisses
from neck to spine
linger,linger please take your time
You say it's ok dear
just go along

Ardor and emotions
out of sync with time
when I awaken
what will I find

Dear lynn, funny poem. Great title. Not altogether sure of your meaning, perhaps others will understand it better than me. I'll return later. All the best, Gracy

Hi, Chrys,
This is quite the open house - I love your first line! I really do wonder what you will find when you awaken...creepy fun!
Thank you!

We are flattered beyond belief.
I'm hesitant about trying to adjust anything in this one.
But, I think that it could use a bit.
If I may; without sounding ungrateful...

Here is my version:

thanks I'm glad Killer approves lol
I used the word "on" to add to the confusion of the whole thing
if you suggested any other changes I do not see them
