I have tasted the manna of Moses from your goodbye kisses;
I have quenched my thirsts from the rock of your love;
I have been caught up in the whirlwind of your passion. . .
And I lie here alone,now, since you bid me farewell,
And I still know your presence:
Your sweet, earthy scent is still rising from my thighs
my stomach, and my breasts. . . .
The roughness of your beard still flushes my throat,
my ears, my face. . .
The gaze of your eyes in our shared pleasure warms me,
haunts me, and sustains me. . .
You are a blessed moment's sunlight baking my fertile belly. . .
And I already know--like Leda, when she was dropped by
her lover, Zeus--
More than any one woman should ever know.
