Awaken
In the swim of your skin
Deep abreasted
A tower dawned with lightning
My swans wing
And you swimming
The delved crescents of your breast
A league skimmed proper above the rest
You and I
His classic hair
Streaming knowledge
Where like a muse it would wash you
And now as a suitor
She courts you
Clasped
In the rug of her love
For her winding mind knows the quarrying folly of untamed youth
Like a new stream
Your childe in the summer of the drought
Yet she dotes on his old brow
Pressed hot lips on the hearts of his toes
Recites in moon flooded groves the prose of his choice
Like a voice
She travels in love
Hooded by the stream of Pan
Then the morn and scimitar rain
And pain on your bruised lips
Tender and warm
Our gauntlet smoothly sails our sea of dreams
Pillowing our sleepy bodies
Silent in the noise of the night
Loud in the night of silence
We snuggle and vibrate
Entwined like the vine
And warm, we laugh
But tender and with limbs light and subtle
Through the eternal washing in the spring of wisdom
The plateau of peace
And to nestle
Under the warm immense beard of my master
