Like in a dream
I see you
Coming out of the water
Your wet hair a golden halo
of liquid stars
Pouring over your body
Your soft skin smeared with red sandal paste,
Shimmering Amrita on your thighs
Reflecting rainbows
Onto your temple
A timeless vision of
She
Who is eternally Wet with love
Horus & Set breathing together, their feet resting on hieroglyph representing the wind pipe and lungs
(From Mina to Miryam)
Running on empty
Just fumes in the tank,
Better stop, Fill up,
with something from bank,
the well, of inspiration,
that never runs dry,
So they say, but there again,
sometimes it just does.
So we meet in your bedroom,
And do it all again,
Sharing the breath of life,
As Horus & Seth shared it,
As Thoth & Horus shared it,
Their feet resting on the lungs,
The windpipe stretched up between them,
Papyrus and lotus fronds weaving,
A mysterious pattern,
Around their bodies.
The in & the out-breath,
Mouths devouring each,
Tongues gripped and searching,
All our body’s parts melding together.
The heart, the stomach,
The sexual centre,
Full of elixir now,
Lingam and Yoni touching,
Then over and in each,
Floating, in mysterious lands,
A plateau through the hours of darkness,
Coming forth at daybreak,
Refreshed & inspired,
Well within us now.
Standing under moonlit sky and shining stars
A Tallit of white and silver
A canopy of lights
You put Ganesha on my finger
And whisper in my ear -
Time to kneel by the altar
My dear
Kissing the feet of the
Ancient priest
Marking his knees with my lips
I take Apep in my mouth
His eye glistened and moist
For a moment or two
We are lost in the void
You help me back
To my feet
Your eyes
Your eyes
Your eyes
Like two shining scarabs
Staring into my soul
Sharing a secret
I recall
The moon priest
Holds me tight in his arms
While I kiss his chest
and bless his heart
Under the Tallit of silvery lights
Our lips met
A kiss and a breath
