Stole this from [livejournal.com profile] i_eat_lemons

because it's beautiful and I'm going to cry and I wish I could write like this:

(Floating Poem, Unnumbered)
Adrienne Rich

Whatever happens with us, your body
will haunt mine -- tender, delicate
your lovemaking, like the half-curled frond
of the fiddlehead fern in forests
just washed by sun. Your traveled, generous thighs
between which my whole face has come and come --
the innocence and wisdom of the place my tongue has found there --
the live, insatiate dance of your nipples in my mouth --
your touch on me, firm, protective, searching
me out, your strong tongue and slender fingers
reaching where I have been waiting years for you
in my rose-wet cave -- whatever happens, this is.

Hooray for Adrienne Rich!

Your post has encouraged me to reread her Twenty-one Love Poems. I hereby blame half of my existentiosappy mood on you.

Grr!

Adrienne Rich = one of the greatest poets in the world.

This is Tiara, btw. When are you coming to Vegas again?? We're SO there.
