One

One
by
Rebecca Anne Varley

Intensity pools and drips
delicately
across the slope of your brow-
pouring past our
eyes-engaged in
Soular embrace.

We're wrapped blissfully in each
other and quivering with intention,
our bodies swaying to
glorious rhythms
while time's clever ploy is posponed and
endlessness
surrounds-
dancing in spirals to our body's
pulsations

and I know
this is IT.

So commonly
spoken, yet rarely
revered,
Love
gasps from our lips, tenderly
clutching us each
into ego-exploding ecstasy as
we are

one.
