Heart And Soul

I lose my respect for the man who can make the mystery of sex the subject of a coarse jest, yet when you speak earnestly and seriously on the subject, is silent. - Thoreau

lost in the lacteous, begotten highlands of twin, papillary peaks

the bittersweet taste of deceit upon your lips

hidden in the womb of moist, sacred folds

unspoken, covert recesses

i wanted your soul

all i got was your body

Author's Note

“The intercourse of the sexes, I have dreamed, is incredibly beautiful, too fair to be remembered. I have had thoughts about it, but they are among the most fleeting and irrecoverable in my experience.” - Thoreau
