THE ANCIENT WAY

Let us make love 
in the old way, the ancient way, 
so that magic wakes within us, so that 
the moon is conjured, & the stars, 
so that our heartbeats span the rainbow bridge 
& glide golden above the waters, 
let us dive, deep, relentless, into the mystic 
pathways of our neurons so the Earth grows 
ripe, & fertile, & green, let us wake the hidden spirits 
yet alive in the dark woods, in the living forest, 
let us dance the wild dance of the satyrs 
& the nymphs birthed by lovers breath, for we 
are landscapes, we are worlds, we are fleet deer 
frenzied by the flying of the night, in whichever body 
I find you, in whatever kingdom or shining hour, 
I know the Cosmos binds us, I know the spring winds rise, 
fragrant with blossoms & the glittering dragonflies 
of rapture & ecstasy, I know we kiss with the Grace 
that calls us, exquisitely, erotically, eternally, 
to the rivers & shoreless sea...
