Eagle's Love

She cried 
All the tears 
Of her body 
Of his heart 
Of her mind 
Until 
Only his soul 
Can reveal herself 
Can transform himself 
In the flood of the Nile

This is the way it is 
That flew away
The first Imperial Aquila
Lonely 
Heavenly
Invisibly
In search of fourteen pieces
Stolen
Scattered
Dismembered 

Of her Love

I have always met racy lines in poems. The ones in Eagle's Love strike me as doubly useful to it subject matter! Agony of a Deprivation.
