glide the sharpened blade
of a sacrificial knife
up and down my wrists
then up to my throbbing throat
so similar this seems
remembering her fingers
glide across my skin
as we became like the Sabbatical goat
neither her nor I
were either inside or out side
we were as Baphomet
and we did float
brush strokes, of our blood
used to paint the figure we were becoming
something worthy of worship
as our nails dug into eachothers sides
Oh, I could feel her ferocity
trying to get inside of me
Oh, though she could only follow me
as I follow her-like the moon and the tides
her soft lip, whispered something to me
up against my warm throbbing neck
as her hips continued to sway like the seas
and she said something to me that put a shake in my knees,
"I love to feel your heart beating
deep within me, like a serpent's in me
now feel mine on your lips
can you feel us?
Can you feel
when our souls kiss?"
I had to hold on tighter to her
as she did to me
as we spiraled away
into certain bliss
our bodies were no more
nothing but ecstasy we became
boom, bloom, eyes like blackholes
and like nubulas, we came
and there we drifted
within what is us
I am not sure if she ever came back down
her presence now is like a winds gust
so I sit here
with this sacrificial knife
teasing my belief
in tangible life
finally, I get a smile from her
as she stands in front of the sun
an so innocently says,
"Ooh, that looks fun"
"It is,
it's better than pictures."
"Even a mirror?"
"Yes, even a mirror"
"How do you do it?"
"Just breathe, and remember."
"But, what if I bleed?"
"All the better, take a sip and remember."
"We were dead, weren't we?"
"Yes, my love, yes indeed."
