forever

in a winsome whisper
i invite you inside
my story
& offer you forever

the wry curl of my
slow smile illustrates this
prehensile tale as i
twirl it tellingly
around your perceptions
& give you
visions
& love.

& this is limitless love
i give you,
untouched by any
temporal or physical
boundary,
& yet it can be
expressed to perfection
in the flesh, yes.

& yes
of course we are
incapacitated by
the intensity!

primitive rhythms
relentless within us
&
yes, these are
impossible promises
we are making

but they are made
with words & motions
which describe the
gentle curve of infinity

perfectly

as far as i can see.
