Across The Smiles
O' woman; goddess of imagination,
let the dreams of love enfold whilst we fly
across the smiles, the frowns that capture us.
And when we are high in the throes of scent,
we can explore the stars as they spin wild
sensuality between our desire.
There will be angels plucking at fast sighs,
poetry slipping down thighs; drenched with light,
and the world will be a thousand colours,
a million shapes away when we explode
into the gorgeous face of the divine.
