We Are Two
We are two…..
your hands
two nervous birds
nesting in mine
my chest
hollowing itself
for your breasts
love-birding
close to the cage of my heart
your mouth
chick-beak
hungrily
to swallow the worm
of my tongue
our hips
birds of paradise tails
dipping
urgently
to rim
our probing head
into our enchanting nest…
we are two
we are one !
