Frisky Moon


frisky moon
i wake up in the crack of dawn
clothed in passion

behold the fragrance of love divine
the flaming
neurons are ready to rock again

you straddle two cultures
like this fragile
soul dancing in the wind

mars and Venus in the ecstatic flush
of life foretold
how sweet is the cosmic flame of desire?

living the dream like an angel
i fly
on the wings of ambition

you hold my hand in silence
purring
like the Nefertiti’s kitten

under the starry night of wonder
i catch the
meteor of desire with one hand

overwhelmed with delight: i say there is
a lot of heaven
in the spaces between dreams
