Sex on the Train

You hover above, wetting 
Your tongue on my warm
And perfect response —

We lift higher than words 
On these flaps, there is so much
More in every gesture

Than the body, however wholly
Activated and fed
Can take lying down (or sideways).

There is so much love
To be expressed
On either side, 

Breast and eye, belly 
And cry, the rose 
Of desire intermingles

With the archangels 
As they leave the stage
For us alone to dance.

And dance we must, every
Beat of the heart that is
Life here on earth.

We must clasp hands
And glide to the strings 
Of our being, 

To puncture
The void
With all that explodes 

From our natural, permanent 
Love for the only 
One that exists 

For love, the all
That is, every heartbeat 
Choreographed for grace,

Voluptuousness,
The snake tango strike
And perpetual purr,

The clasp of a million lives
Together 
As if there are two,

Ooh only one,
How is it I can
Even say this to you?
