OUR OPUS: Some romantic nonsense I want to decorate your body with my lips and weave your hair into tapestries. I want to emblazon your cheeks with kiss after kiss and turn the ruddy earth of your skin into landscapes of poetry. I want to look into your eyes and see a radiance so bright that all other images fade. Finally, I want to reach a state where all distance becomes nil and both of us with delight are filled Chris: (yawning nonchalantly) Such passion can't last long! Miok: I agree. Passion is intoxicating, but soon enough passes away . . . . Tim: Nothing is wrong with passion as long as we don't cling to it. Cantara: Is that possible? After tasting the wine of passion, wouldn't anything else taste like vinegar? Tim: (shrugging his shoulders) Don't ask me – I'm merely a fool who understands so little of this world! ===================================================================================== from Heart Scenes: Emotional Landscapes via Art, Poetry, & Prose by T Newfields Summary: A passionate supplication poem and de-construction of the notion of passion.
