Image for the poem L

L'appolonide



in my dream, she’s always there
she’s a woman, like any woman
the waking truth of passion
flesh of a man’s fantasy

if she denies my entry to her temple
I become the barbarian
storming her gates.  invader
so demanding are my wants
so great is my need

but mostly, in the dream, she remains passive
the allure of her nudity speaks for her
regard not the red flag
we advance to battle without armor
hearts naked & defenseless
artillery is silent, no flares besmudge the sky

a woman, wise to carnal madness
she bears my savagery with tolerance
we wound each other with the rage of kisses

I come to her bravely
but more courageous, to myself…
