I have promised to extend Anointing – make it more than a wordshine poem. This morning I sat at my computer after a dry spell of two to three weeks and started to write. As I tweeted today “Dear Twitter – my muse was out on sick leave with lyrical laryngitis – she is slowly recovering… welcome her back!” So I sat down and the rest of this poem came to me today. For those who remember the original wordshine poem – here’s the longer version. If you want to see the original, click here. Enjoy this longer version as well!
Anointing
Anoint my lips
with fiery kisses
Baptize me in your oil
flowing from the passion
of our joining
Give thanks and praises
as we lift our hands
swing our hips
gyrate while
laying prostrate
in reverence
Before the Goddess
who rewards our worship
with molten lava
seeping into hidden crevice…
Voices raised unbidden
we come together with nothing hidden
No secrets – naked inside and out
souls knitting, weaving intricate tapestry
two lives, one mind and body
connecting at the centre
….
I prepare for my baptismal dip
First
Immersed completely
within gripping folds
Then
We rise and fall
repeatedly
until we call to the Godess
for release
We call, but she, in wisdom,
holds her peace
waits for tension and momentum to build
Ascending passion’s precipice with skill, we
reach the summit, admire the view….
then plummet towards climactic boom
feeling fear of impending doom
but also freedom so intense
we feel our souls expand
….
Momentarily as immense
as the galaxy
….
And then our worlds collide
….
Goddess anoints us with eternal bliss
Fiery passion engulfs all reason
All senses overwhelmed
exhilaration crests,
Till our season of togetherness
slowly subsides
and we bask in the receding tide
of our anointing.
