As if afloat
|
As if afraid
|
The spirits meet
|
Waited for an age
|
It was a lesson sent
|
|
Abstract and numbed
|
Abstract and bleak
|
Patience lent
|
His test of patience lent
|
|
Horizontal yet erect
|
Yearning lying in wait
|
Oneness floats about
|
Unity served on his plate
|
|
Circling round about
|
The lover he will meet
|
Dripping mellow stains of long
|
M M M M Melting in her heat
|
|
The lover he must meet
|
Circling round about
|
Dripping mellow stains of long
|
Melting in her heat
|
|
Without a blink
|
Without a sigh
|
His circle and hers meet
|
Synchronised split
|
Split seconds beat
|
|
She killed his past
|
With her kiss
|
All past was but a lie
|
She killed his head
|
She killed his mouth
|
And opened up the sky
|
|
She killed his past
|
With her kiss
|
All past was but a lie
|
She killed his head
|
She killed his mouth
|
The he-she joining
|
The moment now
|
Would be the only sound
|
No front no back
|
No present tense
|
No milk from no holy cow
|
|
She killed his past
|
With her kiss
|
All past was but a lie
|
She killed his head
|
She killed his mouth
|
And opened up the sky
|

His Circle and Hers Meet
