The Flesh Between Your Lips

Your mind is enough for my Soul,
and your breasts freed to sway.
What is will/be is enough and 
I keep my severe dreaming away!

I saw your golden cord climbing
above your nest that rises out
of the mouth to heaven.

And all illusions as a drying 
painting of enormous proportions
that cupped flowers and abstained
from all human thinking -- 
the immovable body against the
irresistible force -- THUNDER 
like eternity in flight like 
a wave.

The greatest smallest creatures!
The smallest biggest lies!
The irrefutable truths against

the deepest paradoxes know!
If you are sad -- a lonely voyage!
Like the clouds engulfed in storms
I have spoken through pines and 
cold soil -- through fire and 
full blown masts across the seas!

You are the vintage nature of all;
a people with high raised hills of
strength and nostalgic voices.
I awake each morning before the 
sun to watch the birds flee --
back into the nest of your love!

An odyssey of lust and limits. Love the impact of this, drying paint comparison. Your kind of Poetry is going to unleash my mind. Thank you in advance, Ernest.
