fire in the snake’s eye

the body is holy
to kiss is to pray

-honey on the tongue:
a sacrament for the senses-

breast are the children of God
and the belly is a temple
where holy embers burn below
and divinity sleeps

she’s hungry
to feed your mind
and cries:

mind be body
mind be kiss
mind be honeyed tongue

mind be breast
mind be blood
mind be belly everlasting
flame and flesh as one

fire in the snake’s eye
snake in the fire’s belly
