Tonight we solemnly celebrate
The Beginning, the screaming
afterlife of the day, the mysterious
play of being desired
as for the first time
be seen
in new shoes, laugh with new eyes
at decency and the people
who tell what to fear and how
love should be
the gentle hand
that moulds my body, the swift one
that completes it in heaven, and the
mighty one that sows the earth in me
and always
be important
to you, holding your beauty
in my caressing hands
in nights from which I wake up in amazement
pregnant of happiness
the magic of attention
that coddles me and makes me laugh
as long as we live in the same world
and then lie silently together because
it cannot be explained
Denouement of romantic play & pleasure. Scintillating.
