Alitha
Again hello love-
moving through this temple
skeleton chest and out
for even as you kiss places
so interior
that treasures were long
abandoned or forgotten,
you must glide on and out-
to further precincts
of life's space-
Flowing through wounded
forms and places
of innert refusal,
blowing over and through
every temple of every soul
- this love so great
and restless-
burns through all its forms-
be they locked in rage or tempers
or rebellious thrusts of freedom
this love rains there
soaking darkest basements
of contempt
and prisons of despair-
arriving wholly for real
on the most subtle
invitation.
Hello love again-
I close me eyes,
sink into surrender,
feeling it would take me,
kill me
in breaking these chords to earth
one day goodness destroying this self,
sculpting sacred division,
monumental reminder of loneliness-
grinding all palaces then to dust,
spice for angels' prayer-
Timeless, let me gently
collapse into it-
as much as I am able.
Love, again hello,
Goodbye.
