i dream of you
        i dream of you and wake to you
i wake to your mysterious sweetness
        a thick confection of dark enchantment
        i wake to you: my dark lord singing
        my savior complete in faceless armor
so close now: i can hear your mouth move
        so close now: i feel your breath
        deep in my belly
intoning metered, delicious seduction
        you unfold me
        you unravel me
        you stretch my chaste limbs
        horizon to horizon
you whisper, you murmur
        you speak in tongues
        your mouth is music
        your mouth is prayer
        electric canticles for celibate flesh
this is bethlehem, sweet lover
        this is calvary, my darling
and my body, now liquid, forgets its slumber
        my voice, now full, forgets its silence
and
i genuflect in glory and cry amen
