Immediacy

with the race of bliss
produced by that first kiss
the blood rushed to where
the willing go, when all
the worry drifts away between
two people who’ve come to
the conclusion that this is 
where they both want to be
at the right time in the right
place sharing the right amount
of wonder & physically 
accompaniment---it all brings
the senses right down to the
wire, making the hearts roar &
the minds echo, as if to sing
back to each other through
staring bedazzled eyes, songs
that neither know the words
to but share in tandem
simultaneously, when the
flirting leads to gentle exchange
of touching that leads to 
this moment that will be
remembered, yet distorted,
be it for better or worse,
an illusion left for however
it all turns out.
