A poem is my woman

A poem is my woman

      and when I enter her

I doff my chains, free

to count the links

each man and woman

woman and man

ever before and to come.

 

I am free, aswim in truth

the primal ooze

cursing through us all.

Liberated, I come and go

finding that:

      words are flesh

      flesh are words.

 

A poem is my woman

          and when I enter her

in union we bend

the bars of our cells.

Then, free as a window

we can jump down,

down into the green fields

and know our god

                             that woman

                                       the poem

     within us all.

One thought on “A poem is my woman

  1. Who wouldn’t like this poem? : )

    Now we need some woman authors to go with it… I’m working on it; it will take me awhile (library card!)
