Inchoate
My existence in you
With a clairvoyant salute
of shadow hands
She grins
behind your closed mouth
Enjoying the sensation
of tongue to tongue
My existence in you
A brightening
of encircled edges
Bundled into cellophane letters
Pink tiptoeing
the rhythm
of your lonely walk
Unable to see
your wounded eyes
she won’t run
Obscure to herself
In the glowing church
of your skull
undressed
in tomorrow’s memory
She climbs atop the altar
in a camisole of flowers
My existence in you
has promised conjugal visits
I also
love this shining likeness
of myself

Wishbone, Clavicle Kiss
I couldn't wear that
white dress you painted
tapering into the blue.
So I lay with
you naked.
The unbuttoning
of a politely curved lip
tips kisses
on my chest,
stomach,
funny bone,
clavicle,
wishbone.
I stammer a preface
to your impatient hands,
impaled
by my prattle,
as a litany of tongues
imprisons my groans
and my ear sleeps
on a bed of your sighs.

The Sip
drawn from the well
deep within subterranean cool earth
a filtered aquifer
lowering a clean cup
down and down for ever it seems
with a splash
that echoes a single droplet
in a cavernous pool
a taste is retrieved
overflowing as it rocks
to the surface
clear and pure
from the calm sheltered oasis
my summer spring
crisp and wet in my hand
raised into sunlight
beads glisten and run
along my fingers
down my forearm
trickling refreshment
like fresh washed lettuce
drink
life essence absolutely fine
make me new

Contemplation
We are mutes.
discovering each
other in words
and sparse notes
without lyrics.
Amongst other happenings,
we will forget this
and yearn for it
again.
Envying others
who have found it.
We will pity ourselves
for losing it.
We are lost,
in our wandering gazes
and so many faces.
Enclosed within ourselves,
our breath, to not
blow out candles,
or feed fires.
Inarticulate longings as
eloquent prayers.
With swollen tongues
in closed mouths.
We will smile silent.
Later we will grope
for a sound.
There will be uneasy
nights with everything
bare and distant.
I will ask you nothing
and answers will come
from everywhere.

We Entwine
I had an inkling
More than delicate tears
and soft lips
More than a sip
from your golden chalice
Unfettered by affection
Surrounded by miser’s smiles
In the aftertaste
of your voracious tongue
The rolling apples
of your words
Beneath
the dimly vanishing
The common language
of selfish flesh
