it was a gorgeous fecund thing, mechanical but carnal, veined like a beast' heart

dear god, how i love you in darkness, you small pulsing creature.

mon dieu, comme je t'aime dans le noir, toi ma petite créature qui palpite.

when loneliness shines through your bones like a bare bulb

quand la solitude brille à travers tes os comme une ampoule nue.

through the wing gauze of jeth

coupée, recousue, défaite

i knew the time had come to yield like a meadow so i did, and you moved through me like the May breeze and i was blessed.
