the rug shifts
beneath us
i lift my skirt and offer you
nature
nurture
desire
i am both
light and dark
where the darkness stops
the light begins
you are no stranger to
this eden
this flesh
this skin
you seek guidance for
your wonder
your glow
your burn
you grasp my hips
like you’re grasping
permanence
temperance
gushes from
between your legs
my sex chokes
on your lust
i lose the moon
to silver clouds
