My Evening Shelter
heavy
lies the head that bears this crown
as it slowly descends
the sleek and narrow stairway
Into your heaven
serenade my passage,love
with a reassuring hymn
let your harmonious pulsing massage
this drawn out symbol of angst
seething with intensity
yearning to lessen the density
of this burden I carry
I know
that within the hall of your cathedral
I shall find my solace
my refuge from THAT which goes bump
inside the asylum that is my mind
for your most basic nature
is to nurture
and as my torment is self evident
allow this sojourning soul
to share the warmth of your residence
if only for the moon's passing
render unto me the healing powers
of your feminine compassion
acquitting me of this nocturnal disquiet
as my midnight companion
hold firm sweetness
it is a turbulent thing I have for you
with each urgent thrust
I trust only in you to hold dear
and cradle the particles of
my fleeting essence
this outpouring of my being
continuous
~~~~~streaming~~~~~
until superimposed
at ease at last
within you
my evening shelter
