sharp edged appetite
carnal hunger to taste you
mind and then body
-----
born mid your petals
down your path of fold and frond
dewdrop to my tongue
------
Urgent and argent in moonlight
Her body naked flower rising
Glowing with the pleasure
Of the silver caresses of
The moon and myself,
Her small buds dark mysteries,
Her oasis of the goddess
Love's altar hidden
But hinted at,
By the weeping arrow of Eros,
Guiding the way to
The fulfillment of
Desires of the flesh,
As the poet contemplates,
The other beauties of
Her heart and mind,
So willingly revealed.
