Love Poem How Gentle - Lover's Poem |
how gentle
~ Joyce Carol Oates
how gentle are we rising
easy as eyes in sockets turning
intimate the hardness: jaw
upon jaw, forehead warm
upon forehead
kisses quick as breaths, without volition
Love: I am luminous
careless as love's breathing
fluorescent glowing the fine
warm veins and bones
your weight,
the sky lowered suddenly
I am loved: a message
clanging of a bell in silence
you are quickened with surprise
our horizons surrender to walls
Are we wearing out
our skins' defenses? --
turning to silk, texture of flashy
airy surfaces scant as breaths?
I am loved: the noon slides gently
suddenly upon us
to wake us
