Taming the Light

Blackness
Darkness
Lightless

Even before the first star was born
I stood as a signet
to the first thought
the first word

In my birth
he was inside me
growing with me
until he expelled himself

nursed in the fullness of my deep
he became full and fat
fed from my mind
he became long and lean
and in the fullness of time
he became

Effulgent
Luminous
Radiant
Brillant
He became my equal

My power aroused him
he sought to claim me
he held me by my throat
pinned against eternity

I growled
and time began
We rolled over the darkness
until all things were created
Light inside the darkness
as one

Sanctuary

You allow me to
cross the threshold into your presence
I stand between the pillars of your legs
and fall to my knees in reverence

I've been chosen
I am worthy to partake

Your hands fall on my head
as if to bless me
There's a choir singing in your moans
In all the variations of my touch
I say a prayer
Until I invoke his presence in you

You lift me toward you
like sun rays over the horizon at dawn
lay me down and cover me
with the power of your desire

And as you reach to kiss me
I feel your glory pour over me
I open everything to you
and enter the sanctuary of your love.

Sacrilege

Innocent

you touch me 

as if you could do it wrong

I want you

take me

Timidly 

you speak to me

but there's another in you

who speaks with his eyes

who commands with his hands

concedes with his lips

set him free

Yes

like that

all of your weight

face to face

growls in your throat 

and that

yes that

If you think I can't take anymore

make me

treat me like a prayer 

speak it and it's done

I want him 

I give him to me

The trembling in my legs 

is not fear

it's the force of the release

of that visceral and sacred

being in me coming for you

now that you set yourself free

It would have been sacrilege 

to give her to anyone else.
