Trois Poem by RIC BASTASA

when we make love
tonight
between our bodies
and minds
as we kiss and
hug and moan
and groan
i shall not tell you
that between us is
a memory of her
and so when i start
to close my eyes
and feel the rapid beating
of my heart
i shall hear a rush of the
waters
i shall feel the gushing of
the river
inside my mind
and there she stands
still waiting for me
and there i shall hear
the sweetest song
of love from her

and then i explode
like the sun
on this big bang
to create the meteors
and the stars

i live in the universe
of my own imagination
in there there shall be
the three of us.
