Body of a Woman

Body of a woman, white hills, white thighs,
you look like a world, lying in surrender.
My body, savage and pleasant, undermines you
and makes the son leap from the depths of the earth.

I was lone like a tunnel. The birds fled from me,
And night invaded me with her powerful army.
To survive myself I forged you like a weapon,
like an arrow in my bow, a stone in my sling.

But the hour of vengeance falls, and I love you.
Body of skin, of moss, of eager and firm milk.
Oh the goblets of the breast! Oh the eyes of absence!
Oh the roses of the pubis! Oh your voice, slow and sad!

Body of my woman, I will persist in your grace.
My thirst, my boundless desire, my wavering road!
Dark river-beds where the eternal thirst flows
and weariness follows, and the infinite ache.

SOMEDAY ITS MUCH MORE

Pieces of souls mixed in me

Pieces of soul mixed to create a core
Perfection ,imperfection all come together
Attempt made every second to hold to the perfection
But the pieces and chunks have all spread like a distant meteor

it’s the early morning unforeseen sense of emptiness that chases the pieces,
I try to hold, and a piece of soul rushes into the ear and whispers, be brave
Another tries to compress forcefully my breath as I constrict the lime,
Yearning, reminding the warmth, the giggles and the early sun of the distant familiarity

Pieces of souls mixed like the mixes of colours made by the summer flowers
All pieces come together, far and near
Some, I sense right next to me and some I run after wandering through my dreamy eyes
But, all pieces come together and stir in me
And I keep following jovially the bits and pieces of souls that is all a part of me

lightness

look clearly

who knew what it all meant
