But I come with a dream in my eyes tonight,
And I knock with a rose at the hopeless gate of your heart—
Open to me!
For I will show you places Nobody knows,
And, if you like,
The perfect places of Sleep.
E.E. Cummings
" I carry your heart with me... ( I carry it in...
A dream whispers “Remember – tryst!”
Push away sleep-heavy headed-ness,
prepare.
Even the wind is still this profound night.
I Say Your Name
One cannot articulate a name unknown.
Perhaps one speaks the concept of it,
the Name to which every other word can be made subservient,
every act a deed of devotion
a Cause to live and die for.
I Say Your Name
“lips brush cheek at dawn
cool fresh breezes stir the world
tenderness abounds”
To Chloe: Who for his sake Wished herself Younger…
There are two births; the one when light
First strikes the new awaken’d sense;
The other when two souls unite,
And we must count our life from thence:

What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?
Don’t be afraid to penetrate the darkness;
enveloping warmth will welcome your entry.
Don’t be afraid to penetrate the darkness;
enveloping warmth will welcome your entry.
But who has ever calculated
how much love goes
into one pair of open arms!
Seifert
If love could fly,
as of course it can’t,
and didn’t so often stay close to the ground,
it would be delightful to be enveloped
in its breeze.
Jaroslav Seifert
was late, late in the evening,
The lovers they were gone;
The clocks had ceased their chiming,
And the deep river ran on.
WH Auden
“Once again I took the shape of my native country,
I grew and flowered among the stones.
And the blood of killers I redeem with light
Mother far away, my Everlasting Rose..”
Elytis
from the AXION ESTI
“THE BLOOD of love has robed me in purple
And joys never seen before have covered me in shade.
I’ve become corroded in the south wind of humankind
Mother far away, my Everlasting Rose..”
Elytis
from the AXION ESTI
“Temples with the sky’s schema
and beautiful girls
who with grapes between your teeth were apt for us!
Birds annihilating the weight on our hearts on high
and ample azure that we loved!
They’re gone they’re gone
July with its luminous shirt
and stony August with its small uneven stairs..”
Elytis
from the AXION ESTI
“Desires”
Like beautiful bodies of the dead who had not grown old
and they shut them, with tears, in a magnificent mausoleum,
with roses at the head and jasmine at the feet —
this is what desires resemble that have passed
without fulfillment; with none of them having achieved
a night of sensual delight, or a bright morning.
Constantine P. Cavafy (1904)
xvii.
Lady,i will touch you with my mind.
Touch you and touch and touch
until you give
me suddenly a smile,shyly obscene
(lady i will
touch you with my mind.)Touch
you,that is all,
lightly and you utterly will become
with infinite ease
the poem which i do not write.
e.e.cummings
i like my body when it is with your
body. It is so quite new a thing.
Muscles better and nerves more.
i like your body. i like what it does,
i like its hows. i like to feel the spine
of your body and its bones,and the trembling
-firm-smooth ness and which i will
again and again and again
kiss, i like kissing this and that of you,
i like,slowly stroking the,shocking fuzz
of your...
