These creatures circle , a slow approach to courtship
Primal remembrance
tongues shed their literacy
their robes to follow
her clinical observation, deemed obsolete
daring to go deep
a quivering reluctance
to love, thrust aside
This Collision consisting of startling Wonder
Memory’s shadow
mirrored their lips, and parted
holy and profane
Sensuality’s story frothing at the brim
Lust’s salt on their skin
fingernail trails leading home
a heartbeat conjoined
Desire immortalized in times finite embrace
