I've got to be
a blade in slice
heated metal
meets ice cold life

figure eight's
eternity
I turn to grace
in spite of me--
and as I lean
into each bend
I reach a hand
to you again...

A partner of
sweet purity,
I turn to coax
him on with me..
backwards, glide,
sublime surprise
one hand in stretch
to grasp of free...

"follow"
(whisper)
"follow me..."
a fingernail's entrail of reach...

" Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go."
T.S. Eliot

I have to agree, this is fabulous. I was enthralled from beginning to end.

my body aches to breathe your breath
your words keep me alive

~Hey S,...your title, damn! All of your words, like I said, your poetry is so satisfying. Every time, your words and thoughts constructed into these, these, truly YOU type of writes, with these messages that crawl around inside of me. These little whispers (and sometimes shouts) that dance around my head all day. Thank you for all you do and share. *Peace poet.
