Out of Body Experience

My seeking spirit
unfleshes it’s body
and spreads
it’s wings of fire,
for your bright blue soul
lies with me
on our wave carved
island rock.

Anticipation
of  the
jagged fingered
storm
floods the moment
of our joining
beneath the blood-torn sky.
Electric needles
shiver touch
my arching skin…
sculpted by
breath-soft caresses
of loving hands.


The hardness
of abrasive rock
beneath my back…

racked...

with the pounding rhythm
of overwhelming ecstasy…
the waves pouring
 and breaking
over our flash-tongued,
writhing bodies…
embracing…

suffusing
our torrented flesh
with white plumed,
foaming breakers…
mixing with

the fragrant sap
of our loving.

The seas boiling,
the skies toiling
spilling forth
their storm,
in whose eye


the cold chill
of physical absence

transforms…
 

distilled into

embodied heat
and incandescent,
 

searing passion

Then thunder roars
like a thousand lions
as lightning
splits my thighs
and fated bed
of unyielding stone.
A white surge of energy
…so pure…so bright…
flows through,
between,
inside
and beyond…..


With love,
fused as one…
immuted
our souls become.

Thank you Lacy for all your comments I am overwhelmed, thank you so much. No offense taken on the "cry to God"... it made me smile. I wrote it this way because I wanted to ring something almost audible into the poem. Perhaps it is a little too explicit.
