<div style="text-align: center;">

beloved<br />
i dreamed<br />
it appeared that you thought to<br />
escape me and became a great<br />
lily atilt on<br />
insolent<br />
waters but i was aware of<br />
fragrance and i came riding upon<br />
a horse of porphyry into the<br />
waters i rode down the red<br />
horse shrieking from splintering<br />
foam caught you clutched you upon my<br />
mouth<br />
listen<br />
beloved<br />
i dreamed in my dream you had<br />
desire to thwart me and became<br />
a little bird and hid<br />
in a tree of tall marble<br />
from a great way i distinguished<br />
singing and i came<br />
riding upon a scarlet sunset<br />
trampling the night easily<br />
from the shocked impossible<br />
tower i caught<br />
you strained you<br />
broke you upon my blood<br />
listen<br />
beloved i dreamed<br />
i thought you would have deceived<br />
me and became a star in the kingdom<br />
of heaven<br />
through day and space i saw you close<br />
your eyes and i came riding<br />
upon a thousand crimson years arched with agony<br />
i reined them in tottering before<br />
the throne and as<br />
they shied at the automaton moon from<br />
the transplendant hand of sombre god<br />
i picked you<br />
as an apple is picked by the little peasants for their girls<br />

my love<br />
thy hair is one kingdom<br />
the king whereof is darkness<br />
thy forehead is a flight of flowers<br />
<br />
thy head is a quick forest<br />
filled with sleeping birds<br />
thy breasts are swarms of white bees<br />
upon the bough of thy body<br />
thy body to me is April<br />
in whose armpits is the approach of spring<br />
<br />
thy thighs are white horses yoked to a chariot<br />
of kings<br />
they are the striking of a good minstrel<br />
between them is always a pleasant song<br />
<br />
my love<br />
thy head is a casket<br />
of the cool jewel of thy mind<br />
the hair of thy head is one warrior<br />
innocent of defeat<br />
thy hair upon thy shoulders is an army<br />
with victory and with trumpets<br />
<br />
thy legs are the trees of dreaming<br />
whose fruit is the very eatage of forgetfulness<br />
<br />
thy lips are satraps in scarlet<br />
in whose kiss is the combinings of kings<br />
thy wrists<br />
are holy<br />
which are the keepers of the keys of thy blood<br />
thy feet upon thy ankles are flowers in vases<br />
of silver<br />
<br />
in thy beauty is the dilemma of flutes<br />
<br />
thy eyes are the betrayal<br />
of bells comprehended through incenseStrangershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17117470973639350162noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1790807135520990862.post-90798783964468221342013-08-15T15:02:00.002-07:002013-08-15T15:02:31.259-07:00i like my body when it is with your<br />
i like my body when it is with your<br />
body. It is so quite new a thing.<br />
Muscles better and nerves more.<br />
i like your body. i like what it does,<br />
i like its hows. i like to feel the spine<br />
of your body and its bones,and the trembling<br />
-firm-smooth ness and which i will<br />
again and again and again<br />
kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,<br />
i like, slowly stroking the,shocking fuzz<br />
of your electric furr,and what-is-it comes<br />
over parting flesh….And eyes big love-crumbs,<br />
<br />
and possibly i like the thrill<br />
<br />

any experience, your eyes have their silence:<br />
in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me,<br />
or which i cannot touch because they are too near<br />
<br />
your slightest look easily will unclose me<br />
though i have closed myself as fingers,<br />
you open always petal by petal myself as Spring opens<br />
(touching skilfully, mysteriously) her first rose<br />
<br />
or if your wish be to close me, i and<br />
my life will shut very beautifully, suddenly,<br />
as when the heart of this flower imagines<br />
the snow carefully everywhere descending;<br />
<br />
nothing which we are to perceive in this world equals<br />
the power of your intense fragility: whose texture<br />
compels me with the colour of its countries,<br />
rendering death and forever with each breathing<br />
<br />
(i do not know what it is about you that closes<br />
and opens;only something in me understands<br />
the voice of your eyes is deeper than all roses)<br />
nobody, not even the rain, has such small handsStrangershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17117470973639350162noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1790807135520990862.post-74052956956109025012013-08-14T15:45:00.001-07:002013-08-14T15:45:28.136-07:00it is so long since my heart has been with yoursit is so long since my heart has been with yours<br />
<br />
shut by our mingling arms through<br />
a darkness where new lights begin and<br />
increase,<br />
since your mind has walked into<br />
my kiss as a stranger<br />
into the streets and colours of a town–<br />
<br />
that i have perhaps forgotten<br />
how,always(from<br />
these hurrying crudities<br />
of blood and flesh)Love<br />
coins His most gradual gesture,<br />
<br />
and whittles life to eternity<br />
