The Promise of Intimacy

the promise of physical intimacy
the beauty of involvement
in a trusted place
where angels are gluing wings
to the resident frog
and special light is being measured
for a pair of double identical twin spirits
even the slightest miscalculation
can bring disaster
to the gentle psyche

the road of regard
the ritual of respect
the dance of "I come in peace"
slowly, even thoughly I'm going to pieces
over the holy bosoms and breasts that rests
upon the patience of ever-so and only-if
and even perhaps-not if she deems it

the operation was successful
the frog is flying in circles
the twins have recovered beautifully
and once again I can see myself
for the first time
