The Go-Between

Psssst ¡ Did you know that the sublime petaled kisses Of each could spin your heart to an aching mountain Where worshiped on the pedestal of Earth Such breath would utter your divinity Ahhh ! I have collected these tremulous drops of passion And coiled them in the blood of love Stained their beauty upon the canvas of flesh With such colours that could sigh; a wish Have you dug so deep into your soul That you found me in your own shadow And there I walked constantly The very light, which was cast upon your footsteps All tremble before the interrogations of this tenderness No spoken word, no touch in its body can contain Yet precision unequivocal issues on my fingertip And each vowel of love to be written in my breath Come now, succour to this font, your main stream, my fountain It is I, who by your parody remind you of heaven So tell my lover to bring the fire And in flames nestle us in the crucible of desire Psssst ! Did you hear of such sensuous velvet Where on the etched sweat woke the beast in you I gathered you there in pulsing darkness Where my sanities madness would consume you I am the penumbras deepest wanton Upon the bed of crushed roses and thorns Lay panting, my lips parted, my legs, open A taught tourniquet of wrapped inside my visions Such is the hunger consummate To tear in desperation from the desperate throat That lays before me with it’s arching back And laid bare upon the soul I would devour Each flash awakens in stroboscopic skin Soft, gentle and seething rakes it fingernails through your mind To shudder the darkest of tactile And eat and drink its fill upon submissions brow Come now, pass beyond the constraints and veils It is I, who by your parody remind you of heaven Go tell my lover of consuming flame And of the shuddering night whispering our name
