enveloping

surrounded by seas of desire
and currents of passion stronger
than I can resist, I'm swept by
waves of oblivion
as the sea's astringent salinity
pierces my nipples and its harsh brine
penetrates these lips.

countless times
the tides have changed
and with each rise and fall
different beings claiming to be "I"
manifest again & again

there –
in a state of perfect madness
inhibition becomes
but a memory
as boundaries break
and thighs implode

Dare to dissolve all fantasy
& Merge in the Waters at Night!

Dare to enter that place
of ultimate dissolution
& endless elusion –
a sacred place of
Great Delight

Bai-Luo:		This author should remember the words of great sages such as Krishna. Passion may seem sweet at first, but it's bitter in the end.
Cindy:		Isn't too much of anything probably unwise? Sometimes I have "drowned" in feelings of love. However, it doesn't last. Eventually we all sober up and the naked immensity of reality confronts us.
Aiko:		(raising her eyebrows) . . . too many words. Verbalizations are often merely a form mental masturbation.
