“Beloved
in whose body I rest,
What will your dream be like
when I have sought you without finding you?
Oh,
my love, most sweet
as the allusion of a spikenard
between distant brown scents,
What will become of your heart when I love you?
What will it be like to find you when your body is love
and your voice
a bouquet of light?…”

“…Beloved,
Today I have sought you
throughout my city
and your strange city,
where the buildings
do not rejoice to the sun,
like shells of fruit
and celestial dwellings.
And I walked
with twilight tangled around my tongue,
With a lagoon-like air
and a cloak of danger.
An aura of jasper
saw me from its tower,
As I walked searching for you
among the green smell of the city’s horses,
Among matrons
with diapers and birds;
Thinking about your mouth
my eyes rested
like diurnal doves
on bitter grasses.
And I searched for you then
through the immediacy of my body.
You could come to me then
from the fervid event…”
