Soul Dance

ensnare and
tame
this wild abandon
domesticate the beast
bring it to heel,
in order that it serves
only two
entwined
merging as one.

coax it gently,
ease and cajole it to
respond in rhyme,
(and torrid verse)
while we
ascend higher,
lighter
tighter
with every swing
moving to the beat,
life's pulsation.

wet with sweat,
dissolving.

allow it to produce
at its own pace
draw from its flowing well
of inspiration;

a pervading fragrance
a human scent

capture me
in ur swirling eyes
grip me (tighter)
with ur thighs,
tame my wild gyrations

until i capitulate,
and surrender
in ur arms
inextricably entwined
in love’s embrace
two beings merged as one
two souls dancing,
higher
scintillating,
flaming through the night.
