Immaculate


"Immaculate"

I’d like to write something 
beautiful for once,
divinely dripping with honey
and milk that washes white 
like stamen juice over the uncut,
the bees all come to drink 
the heady dew, 
stroking their black down 
over dusky aubergine-eyed 
blue forget-me-knots,
the nots touched by thorns
those slippery rosary beads 
coddled warm between the hidden 
breasts of petulant nuns 
bending in their black habits
unfettered roses
pistils sticky with stigma
covertly kneeling before their 
uncovered dreams 
of nakedness blanketed
in the sun's light 
warm and flaming
as a forbidden kiss 
plucked passionately
immaculate
