ΤЂЄ HIDDEN FACE OF TRUTH (Original Sin)

seductive fruit
of the poisoned tree
i bite into you
you bleed for
my disease

you said
true intimacy requires trust
then thrust
the hot truth
of your innocence
into me
with unfamiliar ease
carved another
hole
into my heart
stole another breath

adam daemon god
father & death
within

the sly confession
of your lips
without

sweet juice of you
is bitter now
your heat
forbidden
lies within
the eternal green
of the virgin grass

cold blue
hides the wet
firmness
of your youth

red heat
disguises  
the sudden
fire of disgrace
the glow
of sudden knowing

sinking into the mutual dream
we no longer dream alone
now we live
inside each other’s dreams
of conquest
of surrender
of pleasure
of desire

outside each other’s
harbour of
forgiveness
within each other’s
eloquent disguise

there is the trail
of your slithering lies
if ever i needed proof
but i could never look
upon the hidden face
of truth
into it’s hissing
eyes
