of sudden desire
we fucked. because my passion is overwhelming
because her devotion is absolute.
we fucked. it is the primal urge, the first rapture.
if there was a Garden in Mesopotamia,
a man was created, & he was given a woman;
when they fucked, only then did it become Paradise.
before there was love, there was sexual union.
it joins us to the animals.
we fucked. the word itself is coarse & cruel.
it’s denied to the sensitivities of poetry & art;
if it’s used there, it’s labeled extreme, & banned.
we are ascended when we have it
and tormented when we do not.
we fucked. we are in a lonely place,
she & I, where no one can find us.
we touched; we kissed. we held each other with
extraordinary surrender –
and fucking emerged out of all that is beautiful.
we fucked. of all the glory in heaven
so much was never given.
you are Tereska & I am John. we fucked…
