he touched her lightly on her symbolism and was gone

///

                            in the bright morning
Let us find


                                     Our child

( he  who awaits
The true emerging )                            

//

We used to take the
naked *****

Castrate and hang him from a tree

and leave him hanging for weeks

To terrorize his kind

//

Now we fight terrorists across the seas

But we have not cut that ***** down

The girl I met and started to love

Went off with another man

Later / I asked

DID YOU SLEEP WITH HIM

••

OH NO

she said

I WANTED TO BUT

I KNEW SOMEDAY YOU WOULD ASK

AND I COULDN'T LIE TO YOU

AND I KNEW IF I SAID YES

IT WOULD HURT YOUR FEELINGS

AND I TOLD HIM THAT

AND HE SAID

YOUR RIGHT
SO RIGHT

WE CAN'T DO
IT THEN

//////

someday

someday

////

we touch so
Lightly

LOVE

we enter each other 's

Symbolism

and go on into

The Promised Land
