Bliss: 11 Choruses

1.
For we
are coming
together under
the stars,
as ordained,
our cosmic
re-birth real,
riding it
seems, the
same wave,
ubiquitous joy.

2.
Three weeks
from day
after tomorrow,
I shall
ride to
you on
the far
fair winds,
sleek and
moon-blown,
intersecting vortices.

3.
Beyond far
mountains, where
the azure
sea greets
the sundown,
where Rainier,
Hood and
The Sisters
mark our
ecotopian dreams,
melting souleyes.

4.
Sun, mists,
the emerald
garden, rainbows
span butte,
valley, lava
falls, fire,
ice, we
are home
within each
other, wherever
we sleep.

5.
Magic Eggbus,
plying I-5,
bringing you
safe, free,
individuated,
emancipated,
the perfectly
precise measure
which brings
our heartsouls
joined, again.

6.
From far
south bay
to new
safe harbor,
from Great
Shield to
new Cascadia,
unfettered tongues
blaze, baggage
carousels humming,
our lovesong.

7.
Two and
one half
weeks, faires,
beaches, falls,
woodland nymphs,
fir forests,
fairies, elves,
dreams, our
enchanted paradise,
now joining—
place, people.

8.
We seek
Beauty in
the Truth
of each
other, this
mixing of
place and
people our
new geography,
our beginning,
again, certain.

9.
There is
perfection in
this merger,
which we
see, understand,
intuit, write,
and thereby
see again
with new
eyes, visions
now alive.

10.
Unity in
this blessing:
finding, being
found, the
awesome amazement
at how
easy and
comfortably we
blend into
our future
as One.

11.
We explore
the new
bliss this
eleventh hour,
as we
reset our
clocks to
a new
time of
“we”—reborn,
bliss, coupled.

    so much love
    spent waiting
    for the luggage
    to arrive

    and intimate
    public displays
    of eyemelts
    and kisses

    your black leather
    jacket falling
    off one shoulder

    the laced thigh
    of my black stockings
    hinting from beneath
    linen hiked skirt

    quite shocking
    i'm sure--but how
    the world dissolved
    whenever
    we'd meet

    after weeks
    of separation....
    waiting, waiting,
    the delicious
    moments
    beneath the kaleidoscope
    of swirling terminal signs
    as we swooned

    waiting, waiting
    and carousel
    circling

    for a green suitcase
    or a blue duffel bag....

    To think
    that the
    whole world
    could steal
    our luggage
    and the
    (whole damn airport)
    during that
    ONE
    incredible
    Kiss, as
    if our
    breathing
    mattered,
    as we
    inhaled
    each other.

    I wonder,
    whatever happened
    to security:
    no one
    ever bothered
    to ask us
    if we had
    checked luggage
    tags, even
    if we
    had checked
    bags, one
    blue, one
    green, circling,
    circling, circling
    as we,
    black leather
    sliding
    to the floor,
    stockings slipping
    down delectable calf,
    and our embrace
    remained locked
    all the way
    to the
    parked car,
    up escalators,
    down elevators,
    riding the tram,
    who could remember
    where we
    parked,
    or who
    had parked,
    and who was
    flying, who
    was coming,
    going, flying?

    So intense,
    even today,
    we still
    stop by the
    airport just
    for a
    naughty thrill
    at the
    baggage carousel.
