to you I surrendered the essence of my being from hidden depths unearthed forsaken tokens without guile in artless exposure offered secret parts of me I gave no other game to dance and ritual made vulnerable stirring dreams in the dark of night you come to visit as lovers inevitably do free to roam the distant realms AP: 3rd place 2022, Honorable Mention 2021 Posted on July 18, 2021

"free to roam the distant realms" --love this description of the expanse of consciousness and imagination. At least that's what I think it means. Great poem.
