Flowing Soma

write me
torrents,
flowing
rivers of
luv;
snow-white words
on virgin parchment
elude profane minds
but make music to my
eyes

string your letters
amethyst and pearl
compose your verse
with glistening beads
of body sweat,
play me
until my frame quivers
in delight
track your verse along
forming rivulets of joy

spin me a rhythm
my Lord
weave me a rhyme
wrap my mind around your Being
twirl my senses
in wild abandon
release me
i am a drunken dervish,
an insatiable bride
on her wedding night --

shape my longing around
your desire
leave me trembling
before you

who would have thought
your lyric whispers,
tender caresses
and ecstatic kisses
would thrill me to the core?

i am frenzied
lost in exquisite delirium

pierce my heart,
penetrate my soul
i am happy to die in your arms
[my towering Lord of Bliss]

write me to death and life again
catapult me into paradise,
together we inhale
and exhale Existence

free my blocked emotions
with your lyric stanzas
insert your stylus
and release another
measure of your draught,
fill my busy mouth
satiate my being
with your ambrosia

prick my flesh and draw
vermillion, a token
rose of [my] surrender

i am yours
lured, trapped, captured
forever
by your rhymes
my poet,
Lord

play me, slay me
until i lay panting
completely subdued
swooning like a
drunken swan,
intoxicated on your verse

release me from
formalities
customs and constraints
fill me to overflowing
drape my heart with
your signs and symbols
your words make amulets
of the sun and moon
and charms of the stars

turn time on its head
again and again
my Lord

let this pulsating moment
endure forever;
from nothing
you inscribed Existence
especially for me
